Find Living Relatives

I have managed to check out the Douglas Brown who died in Detroit in 2001 but unfortunately he is not the person that I am looking for.
I have found out that when Douglas Brown's mother Agnes died in Wayne, Detroit in 1977 he was the person who registered her death.
His mother was already a widow when she died
At that time Douglas Brown was living at 5271 University Pl, Detroit 48224.
He no longer appears to be living at that address.
If Douglas Brown is still alive he will be about 82 years of age.
My search is now at a standstill.
Any help would be appreciated in trying to find what became of him

Hello Rose,

It certainly looks like a possibility
I checked the USA Telephone Directory for Michigan & found a Douglas E Brown
Jnr. aged in his 60's but his telephone number unfortunately is ex-directory.
I may have to order a Death Certificate to continue my research or close a door.

Thank you for your assistance

Hello Rose

I had a similar problem when I was doing my search in the 1940 USA Census.
I had already found Douglas Brown's father & mother in the 1930 USA Census
I have found this a very challenging search.
Douglas' mother & father originally emigrated to Canada from Scotland & married there.
They then cressed over to the USA & settled in Detroit.
All of the information about Douglas Brown has come from an elderly third party.

Ancestry has them transcribed as Broson. No wonder I couldn't find them.

I got my information from the following

1940 USA Census Detroit City,Detroit, Ward 21 ED No 84 - 1541

There are only three people listed for this family at this address

Charles Brown (Aged 40) Douglas' Father

Agnes Brown (Aged 41) Douglas' Mother

I am informed by a third party that Douglas trained as a Chiropractor
If he is still alive he would be about 80 -81 years old

Best if you post the details from the census so we can get ages and siblings.

I'm not seeing a Douglas Brown in Detroit with those details.

I am trying to find any family of Douglas Brown born in Detroit in 1931.
He is the son of Charles Brown & Agnes Thom who were both Scottish immigrants to the USA
Charles & Agnes were my Great Uncle & Aunt.
I have found them living in Detroit in the 1940 USA Census.
My trail has now gone cold.
Any help would be appreciated.
