Name: Richard Brown
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 19 Jan 1779
Christening Place: WALESBY,NOTTINGHAM,ENGLAND
Father's Name: Robt Brown
Mother's Name: Ann
Indexing Project (Batch) Number: P01131-1

that would get you one generation further back, but the link from George to Richard is the problem

in that batch there are Brown(e) births going back to the late 1500s in Walesby (but not for Robert father of Richard 1779)

interestingly though, familysearch shows baptisms to Richard and Mary in Walesby

Samuel 1813
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NGXT-VRZ

William 1807
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:JWH8-ZMN

before and after 1811, but no George

and also William 1807, Samuel 1813, John 1821, Charles 1823, Ann 1825 in Walesby with the same parents ... and no Mary


the closest birth for a George was 25 August 1811 (fits age in 1851) in Basford, parents George and Sarah
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NGX4-G73

WaleSby, Notts ... for those of us not intimately familiar with local geography especially, spelling counts!

do you have George's father's name from his marriage certificate?

in 1851 he is married to Maria, in 1841 he and Maria are living with Richard

Name: George Brown
Age: 30
Estimated birth year: abt 1811
Gender: Male
Where born: Nottinghamshire, England
Civil Parish: Walesby
Hundred: Bassetlaw (Hatfield Division)
County/Island: Nottinghamshire
Registration district: Southwell

Richard Brown 60 ag lab
Mary Brown 20 female servant
George Brown 30 ag lab
Maria Brown 20


but there is no George Brown + Maria marriage in the index (also checked for missing spouses)

since they have no children they seem to be recently married though


where do you have the names Richard and Mary from? parish records should help find George's birth and his parents' marriage ... if you haven't asked Wendy to help with look-ups, maybe try her thread?

Can anyone help me? I've been told that I am related to the above but can 't seem to find a link.
I am decended from George Brown born Waleby Notts in 1811. I believe that his father was called Richard ( b1781) married to Mary Stubbins but don't know for sure.
Can anyone fill me in on the Rev John's second family with Violet Crombie or any of his brothers. His first family all seem to stay in Scotland.

Many thanks
Fiona
