Sorry Cati if sheep were in abundance in Kent- I only think of them in Wales  8)

There were tens of  thousands in the north of England as well  ;)

I think we've got it too.

Mutthouse - going by the free index you need to search for Beatrice Brown born 1883 resident in Poplar. This should give you the family you want.

And they say there are more sheep than people in New Zealand.

I put a post on here previously but can't find it.  Strange?  Here it is again.

Nic if you think your James Braithwaite Brown was born in New Zealand, have you put an enquiry on the NZ board to see if someone there can find his birth?

Just wondering if there's a connection to the James Braithwaite Brown born in York in 1862?  Could William sheep farmer be a brother who emigrated?

Sorry, I saw your jubilation but thought it was about sheep  ;D   ::) 
Have we proved it or only think it must be so?

Given the birthplaces, Carol and I think think we can be fairly certain.

It's up to Nic to confirm but it seems pretty conclusive- the 2 year old was born at 6 Leader Street(transcribed as 60)

Mum born Islington and called Beatrice in previous censuses.

The parents ages are a bit off mind you.

I think Fifer has a point- William went to NZ and named his son James Braithwaite Brown after his brother.......who then came back here.
Mmm certainly worth looking at methinks.
