HI FLUFFYPANTS AND ALL
I only discovered Roots today after it was suggested to me in the Find My Past Facebook Forum.
I too have been researching Colour Sergeant George Brown, his Father Samuel as well as George's wife Mary Ann Rabbit. I have found all of the information suggested by various people here on my own! I have got LOADS of Mary Ann's history but prior to George's first marriage to her I know none of his history. I even traced the Witnesses on the "first" marriage but apart from the surname I cannot find a link. (they lived close to George's address on the first marriage certificate.
My wife's is a descendant of George and Mary Ann and I have lots of information on their daughter Lily Eliza Brown. She married Edward Davis who was born Edwin Needle! WHAT a FAMILY!
I have George's death Cert and Lily Eliza's birth plus Marriage certificates.
Perhaps between us we can dig further. Finger Crossed.
