Hi, I am trying to find the parents or brothers & sisters related to James Brown who was born in 1795, he married Sarah Smith in 1825 in Westerfield. Lived in Bramford, Suffolk until he died in 1872. I am at a brickwall, any information would be appreciated.

Thank you,
This could be a relative of his somewhere along the line. In most families I am finding, sometimes that the children had the same name. Could be a brother, cousin,
His daughter Jane lived with him until he died, was widowed since around 1840.
I will check this lead out.

I think the only way to do this is look at the parish records.
