Elsdon parish records - Edward BROWN

[rkive82]

Good points SelDen.
I am taking the roundabout route and following nephews and nieces. The name Lancelot is seen again with Norman Lancelot Brown (1903-1966), who is related to Lancelot Brown (1757-1822).

Two of William and Isabella's children are staying with Isabella's brother Thomas Brown in 1851. Possibly because it's a more stable environment as Thomas is a farmer and better off than William, a shepherd.

The Laidlers and the Browns appear to have lots of ties. I'm filling in a lot of blanks with my Ancestry tree to see what crops up.

Thanks

I have just ordered what I hope will be the death certificate for Elizabeth Brown née Pender (1770-1850). She was buried at Raw on 11th May 1850. I think it would help if I could get a copy of her will to give relationships of her children.

How would I do that - probably in Raw, Elsdon, Northumberland before 1850.

I have come across your search and note with interest that some of our names cross paths with mine in the elusive family history data search. I also note the date of the posts being 2014 and was wondering if in your progress over the past years you may be able to fill in some of my missing jigsaw pieces.

I am new to genealogy searching on the internet so please forgive my errs.
My wife initially asked for my help in searching her family tree and has now left the ball in my court.

I am seeking assistance with the 4th most common family name on RootsChat - Brown, in particular Browns of the Elsdon area. What I have so far (please correct if I have anything incorrect):
