Herbert Brown / Graham

[Scabbydog1]

Hi

Can anyone help I am going around in circles with this one even with help I have had previously

my grandfather was born December qtr 1897   Reginald Herbert L Brown        Lincoln    7a   515. however when I try to reseach his father Herbert Brown DOB approx 1876. he seems to change names from  Herbert Graham from Ceylon Brit Subject (they have the  spouses name Charlotte Anne Heald ).
 Herbert brown and Herbert Graham seem to have spouse Charlotte Anne Heald and  3 kids Reginald .. Winifred and wilfred ...the challenge is did he change names or am I barking up the wrong Ancestry tree

The Ceylon Bit I was told by someone on the Site
married 1897 March Qtr
But where ever I can find Charlotte Anne Brown / Graham   
Herbert is nowere to be seen as either Brown or Graham
Can anyone possibly help shed light on this mystery for me

(they have the  spouses name Charlotte Anne Heald ).

She appears to be this one-

Birth December 1872
HEALD Charlotte Annie
Whitchurch H. 2c 205

The district contains Laverstoke which is her stated place of birth in 1901 http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/whitchurch1.html

Thanks if you try to go further back for Herbert thats where the confusion starts
his is noted as DOB 1878 or 1876 not strange I suppose but one says Lincoln and another says ceylon under the name Herbert Graham
but they it gets iffyand herbert is my research challenge any help on him would be great

My grandfather did use an alias name at various times in his life for some reason
I am told he joined uop in an alias name possibly Graham

he always told us not to look for his family he died 30 years ago so I kind of feel safe to do so now

There is a Herbert BROWN (born Ceylon) who shows on 1881 and 1891 - but he is aged 1 and 11, so a few years younger than you would have liked.  The interesting thing is that he has a brother called Reginald.

Reg had the same age as Herbert would have been in 1901.

Maybe he wasn't in this country before the marriage.  What surnames were the 3 children born under?

[hugatree]

Reginald is married to Gertrude in 1901 and is a member of the stock exchange so I don't think he took up as Herbert.

and the Herbert M Brown is shown in 1901 as single and studying for the ministry, so I think this is not the correct family?
