New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: William Brown & Sarah Ann Braithwaite
« on: Tuesday 03 February 15 09:33 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, Re New Zealand connection - I have a photo which was found in Isabella's belongings daughter of William & Sarah. There are no names she has written on the back 'Brown Decedent's 1936 London' It is a group of around 40 people of all ages including small children. The men are wearing suits and a spray of flowers in their button holes, ladies are wearing hats. They are all standing on the steps of some building with two large columns in the background, I suspect it is a family wedding.
I can email a copy to the people who were researching and if they could name some of them that would be great.

Mutthouse & Janette on this site have been discussing their ancestor James Braithwaite Brown son of the above who left new Zealand and went England and married Clara Samuels
My connection is from a sister to James - Isabella Brown - she married ? William Nickless had three children, married John William Brookes - they had child Bessie my Great Aunt - then she married ?Lowery no children.
Brother to James - Fredrick Gilbert Brown -never married - sister to James, Margaret known as Margarita (Rita)
I would like to know more about the England connection especially the Braithwaite side.
Can you confirm the Browns were shipbuilders on the Clyde?
I am in touch with a cousin a granddaughter of Isabella Brown and will get more info and pass it on if you are interested?
