It's kind of fun, but this is the last one!

Samuel Brown in 1873
30 results, including 3 with a dash for mmn

And this was reduced by the method outlined to 3 results, all with a dash for mmn.

So it seems to be working!

Ahh thank you that does help somewhat.

Hello - Ive tried various ways to find a person with no MMN which comes up as - in the list and would like to just find the ones with - but cant find a way to do it, have tried putting the - in various places and even copied and pasted the dash from other results but still doesn't work.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Gordon.

A possibility?

TreeSpirit please help me out, I have spent hours trying to replicate your search for this record without success, will you please walk me through the process, it would appear to have been done using Search/Records but this does not take me to your record ?
Thank you, Gordon.

Thanks for this - I have been trying to duplicate your search in search of other family members but cant get it - could you give me some guidance - Thanks Gord.

ahh yes that is the potential 1841 census I have which fits with a potential birth of an illegitimate first child but this couple would appear to be married whereas I have an illegitimate first child with mother name of Brown - they may have been together but not actually married. ?

What puzzles me is what was MJB doing being born in Belgium and the only thing I can think of is her father was in the army and involved in the battle of Waterloo. So I was wondering if soldiers had their wives with them when stationed abroad.
There are a number of 'Brown' records regarding the Battle of Waterloo. (incidentally not 'my' Browns)
