I don't know if you have this, but www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk has his will:

   Brown   Henry   15/09/1813   tenant in Border, afterwards residing at Leysmill   Inventory, Disposition and Settlement, Inventory and Appreciation   St Andrews Commissary Court   CC20/7/5
   Brown   Henry   01/07/1819   tenant in Border, thereafter residing at Leysmill, parish Inverkeilor   Testament Dative and Inventory   St Andrews Commissary Court   CC20/4/30

The will mentions wife Isobel Scott, children Andrew, Alexander, Jean, Elspeth, Girzel and Isobel, & (grandson) Henry son of Andrew.

Hope this helps!

Hi Gina,

Thanks so much for the info!  I haven't visited Scotland's People recently, but I surely will soon.  Are you related to Henry Brown?

This board is terrific.  This is the second time I've made breakthroughs because of it.

Thanks again,

Diane

Hi Diane,
I've been researching my husband's best friend family for the last couple of years (at his request). He is a descendant of Girzel/Grace Brown & John Bell.
Regards,
Gina

Gina & Diane,

I would very much like to exchange Brown family information with you!!! 

I am your distant cousin Diane, and I am a distant cousin to Gina's husband's best friend....I am a descendant of Alexander BROWN, brother to Girzel/Grace BROWN.  We have Henry and Isobel BROWN as common relatives.

I was very excited to see this family listed here.

Please reply to this message, I look forward to "talking" with both of you!
