Explain my previous.

There are very few Brown in Goldhanger.

Bertie born 1873;  Search 1881, only close match is above.

Assume John & Herbert are brothers.

Is John on the 1871 census?   Yes!   [well, very probable]

Now we have the parents - father IS George.


Marriage 1864 Q3 Maldon:

Brown, George      vol 4a  p 261
Wade, Ann         vol 4a  p 261


1861 Goldhanger   RG9 1091 79 p21

No Address
Joseph Wade, head, mar, 70?, Ag Lab, b. Braintree
Hannah Wade, wife, mar, 55, b. White Notley
George Wade, son, unm, 32, Ag Lab, b. Goldhanger
William Wade, son, unm, 22, Ag Lab, b. Goldhanger
Ann Wade, dau, unm, 15, b. Goldhanger
Charlotte Moore, nurse child, 4, b. Goldhanger
Ada Eve, visitor, 6, b. Goldhanger


1851 Goldhanger   HO107 1778 640 p14

No Address
Joseph Wade, head, mar, 60, Ag Lab, b. Braintree
Hannah Wade, wife, mar, 43, b. White Notley
Joseph Wade, son, wid, 30, b. Great Leighs
Eliza Wade, dau, unm, 32, b. Great Leighs
William Wade, son, 12, b. Goldhanger
Ann Wade, dau, 5, b. Goldhanger
Henry Wade, son, 2, b. Goldhanger
William Cullard, visitor, unm, 20, b. White Notley


Lots to work with here, but I can't find George's history.
