Dear Barbara,

Yes I believe that this is correct.  Annie is also known as Mary Ann. Do you happen to know if John James is on any census prior to 1862?

Thank you,

It would help if you had details from his marriage certificate or later census, his address at time of marriage, his occupation, father's name and occupation

If he's the one in Higher Bebington in 1871 with a son who was born in Wavertree, then this is a possible

Dear Barbara,

At first glance this looks like the right family.  John James's son was born in West Derby and the names Valentine and Charles are in the newer generations.  I don't know anything about Higher Bebington, but it looks like it is just off Church Rd, the address givenn in 1861.

Well now, I guess, it is off to Wexford Ireland for John Browne (Sr.)..thanks so much,

Sydney
