That fits in every way except for the mothers name - Jane McNaught - The marriage and death cert say Sarah Brown

[aghadowey]

Yes, but I think it is worth checking further. Have added marriage to previous post.

[paul_mc]

Ok I think you are on to something as too many coincidences

But now we have Jane Mcnaught and Sarah Brown - maybe he was married twice?

[aghadowey]

Have an idea which might fit but need to do some cross-checking.

Something to think about-

1901 with grandmother Sarah Patterson

Can't find death for Jane (McNaught) Patterson but if she had died perhaps young Richard was raised by grandmother Sarah. Note that child born 1870 had middle name of Brown.

[paul_mc]

This is really excellent.

Thank you so much for putting this together.

Sarahs surname could look like Brown when hand written.

The brown middle name is a thing

I guess Jane's death date would help
