Yes it was Janelle who I was chatting to, lovely lady, sent me newspaper clippings on William Brownless.
I think I have found a connection to the Greenwells, if i am right, Jane's mother Elizabeth Simpson's mother was called Jane Elliot and she had a sister Ann who married John Greenwell and is the lady who Jane Proud is staying with at Newton Cap, also there is a John H Grenwell, a nephew staying with Abraham in 1851 so I am pretty sure it's the right family.
