We need Erin who does Irish lookups!!

Only a long shot but we found that William had a sister and the oldest of the family Frances so I am wondering if this could be John Brew before being married, with his family.

Claire...Re Connaught Rangers...(The Devil's Own)

An Irish Reg. of the British Army formed 1881 and disbanded 1922.
The regiment recruited mainly in the counties of Galway, Roscommon, Mayo, Sligo and Leitrim:
Its garrison depot was located in the Co.Galway.

Is the Wm Brew (b West Derby 1872) the same one as married in Bristol 1920 ...? or am I missing a Wm along the line...?? That would make him in his late 40's when he married

hi,yes he was in his late 40s when he married my great grandmother who was 20yrs younger than him.....

Morning All,

Glad Erin is on the track. I said we needed her Claire.

Have'nt had a lot of time lately to look for you.

Just a thought.

When the brothers and sister are living together on the 1891 census Honora had died by then as her death was in 1890. I wonder if John went back to Ireland?

Fantastic,thank you both,mum coming back from ireland today..does not sound like she has got any further :S...so complex...:)

i wonder?.....how mean to leave the kids to get on with it?
also with twins honora and maria...did one die?(1871 just 1yr honora)
or did they give one away? a mary brew dad john brew/honora formely loftus got married on 28th nov 1914 to a james e bell...but it links to girls baptism orm..when i looked up marriage it was a mary dickinson....

This maybe Maria's death just a couple of months after her birth?? Mistranscribed as Mary??
