FLAVINLACA — 2010-03-17 17:47:28Z

my Bridget Brown was mother to 14 children ( many of which died very young )one of which was Jefferey James Morris d.o.b. March 17th 1852. She was married to James Morris on Feb. 17, 1828 in Castleisland.
I have also found property tenency for her in 1864 in the area of Knockagashel East in Castleisland.
At the Roman Catholic church Saint Peter and Paul in Castleisland I have found many of the baptisimal documents as well as the marriage certificale.

Soxer — 2010-03-17 16:11:36Z

I also have a James Morris b. abt. 1801 who married Bridget Browne. I do have a child for them named Johanna (no d.o.b.) as well as other siblings including my husband's g.g.grandfather, "Jeffrie" James Morris who was b. 3-17-1852 in Castleisland and married Catherine Toohey (b. 1-12-1860)in Chicago on 11-23-1880. I have no indication that James and Bridget ever came to the United States and I believe that James Morris died in Castleisland in 1866 and Bridget Browne 7-15-1895. If I can be of any help please feel free to contact me through a reply to this message.

Re: William Browne

ahlmbrown — 2010-03-17 11:04:20Z

I have ancestry to a william browne from england (arrived at age 13 with the original settlement of Lord Baltimore's family at St Mary's 1633 (if memory serves) on one of the first two ships to arrive, (area below present Wahington D.C. in Maryland)). He had two children but the girl died at early age and the other John Browne continued the family from that region and our ancestors eventually moved closer to Frederick Maryland. If that seems to help, let me know and I can trace the history from the Waynesboro Historical Society. Name spelling changed to Brown in early 1800's.

I HAVE RECENTLY INQUIRIED INTO MY FAMILY LINEAGE AND HAVE DETERMINED THAT JAMES MORRIS AND BRIDGET BROWN OF CASTLEISLAND ARE THE PARENTS OF JOHANNA MORRIS ( ALSO OF CASTLEISLAND ) WHO MARRIED TIMOTHY O'LEARY IN CHICAGO IN 1856.
TIMOTHY OLEARY AND JOHANNA MORRIS HAD A DAUGHTER NAMED JOSEPHINE OLEARY. JOSEPHINE IS MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER. ANY INFO YOU COULD PROVIDE OR COLLABERATE WOULD BE DEEPLY APPRECIATED.

Browne Families in St. George, Maine - 1895 Town Census

Cindy_Beane — 2010-02-01 23:00:07Z

I have no connection to this family but wanted to share this information as this would be impossible to come by and I know personally how helpful this can be. It is from the book "Vital Records of St. George, Maine". Included in there is an 1895 Town Census. In most cases they give ACTUAL birth dates AND also in most cases, they give the wife’s maiden name. Apparently they’re not all in alphabetical order, so I may be adding to this, so here goes:

p. 510

Browne
Rev Sewall, b. Aug 15, 1835
Minerva M. (Meader), b. Mar 24 (20), 1840
Gertrude W., b. June 20, 1864
Robert Sewall, b. July 31, 1866
Ralph Campbell, b. Dec 25, 1873

I went back and read my original post from 10 years ago WOW I forgot I knew all that. I will have to call a cousin to see if she knows more about Harry Tolmin Browne's siblings, which would include your grandfather. What is his name, when and where was he born?

Re: Browne family from Mobile Alabama

lisa92864 — 2010-01-26 03:29:14Z

Interesting questions. My husband's mom was a Browne. She was born in 1924. Her name was Josephine Elizabeth Browne. She had a younger brother named Samuel Browne. I'm not sure what year he was born. He did not have children that I know of. I don't remember if her father was a judge or if it was her grandfather. The family home was on Broad Street in Mobile. They also had a home (ok it really was a shack when I saw it, but was nice "in the day") on Weeks Bay.

I hope this information helps, but I don't think we are related.

Hi Austin,
I too have a John Browne, a shipwright, who lived in Scotland from 1884 (when he married a Mary Glancey), until he died in 1940. Possibly born in Ireland between 1857 and 1864 but no record found yet. I know this is a little bit after your search, but wonder if you came accross any such info on your searches. I would be interested in the DNA story....please keep me posted.

Christine T. bd 1947 and James A. Browne bd 1957, Children of Andy Browne and Betty Corrigan

grammagresty — 2009-11-15 19:19:37Z

I am trying to connect with Christine T. Browne and James A. Browne. They are the children of Andy Browne and Betty Corrigan. Christine was born in Essex in England in 1947 and James was born in Surrey, England in 1957. Andy and Betty worked as housekeeper and valet for a family first in London, then later in Ireland. I believe they eventually moved to the USA.

Sir Thomas Browne- Sheriff --> Nicholas Browne the Immigrant

dcdcarmel1 — 2009-10-01 17:18:19Z

There is considerable and well documented info regarding the ancestors of Sir Thomas Browne, High Sheriff of Kent, b.c.1402, as well as the descendants of Nicholas Browne, the immigrant, b. Inkberrow Perish in 1601. And while a few sites state the connection between the two individuals, none reference any publications or list any documentation to support the following:

Sir Thomas Browne & Eleanor FitzAlan
Sir William Browne I & Spouse Unknown
Sir William Brown II & Spouse Unknown
John Browne & Jone/Jane Last Name Unknown
Rev. William Browne & Magdalena Eslick
Edward Browne & Jane Leids
Nicholas Browne & Elizabeth Leids

Does anyone have source data to link these seven generations? Any info you have will be much appreciated.

Buckingham Browne, Essex Co., VA - d Feb 1733/34

stemmatis — 2009-09-28 12:52:22Z

Does anyone reading this message board happen to have the terms of the will of Buckingham Browne?

It is at Will Book 5, p 344; signed 15 Jun 1733, probated 19 Aug 1735. From an abstract, it refers to wife Eliza, son Samuel, dau Eliza, son Elias, dau Dorothy Brown, son James Brown and dau Mary.

I am interested in the language of each bequest or devise (that is, not just the names, but what they received).

I also have seen a reference to his receiving a patent for 1265 acres in 1719, but cannot find it on the Library of Virginia website. Does anyone have an exact date and book and page reference? [The 1704 Quit Rent Roll shows 400 acres; and the 1715 Quit Rent shows 596 acres.]

Thanks.

Charles Browne and Priscilla Brooke-MD and VA

tunnelm1 — 2009-06-01 14:30:21Z

The referenced couple lived in Queen Anne's Co., MD. Their sons were Bennett (died about the late-1780s), Robert, James and Basil Browne. Does anyone have any information on the wives and children of Robert, James and/or Basil? I know that the son named Bennett Browne moved to Essex Co., VA and married Mary Hill there in 1775. Bennett and Mary (Hill) Browne's children included Andrew, Basil, Charles and Mary, as I recall.

There was a John Brown in Essex Co., VA on the 1783 tax list, as well as on the 1810 and 1820 censuses, and I am trying to determine if he COULD have been another member of the overall Charles Browne/Priscilla Brooke family (there are some interesting "apparent connections" between this John Brown and a descendant of Bennett Browne named Christopher Tompkins Brown/Browne).

Brownes, Nallys, Connellys: How are They Related? Marriages?

kmhwilk — 2009-05-30 03:22:52Z

MAYO: Caherduff,Cong; Creevagh, South Cong; Muckrussaun, Ballinchala

Am researching my maternal grandmother's family line.
She was the daughter of John Browne and Mary Nally Browne, born in Caherduff, Cong, County Mayo Ireland in 1897, one of eight children. She had cousins in Muckrussaun (Nallys)and Creevagh (Connellys). I have a copy of the 1911 Irish Census for her family. At that time her parents had been married for 19 years. Having difficulty finding marriage information for her parents and nothing to indicate marriages between Connellys/Nallys or Connellys/Brownes.

Many of the cousins emigrated to America. I've gathered many of their names from letters my grandmother kept. But I can't add them to my "tree" until I know how everyone is connected.

Would appreciate any help from researchers familiar with the area or any suggestions that would help me narrow my search. I'm using on-line records from the Mayo South Family History Centre.

Thank you
