Hi Maz1

I have a Louisa Brown born c1841 in Bow Common, Middlesex.

She married an Edwin Richard Plant and went on to have several children (at least eight).  Mary, the oldest was born c1867 in Poplar.

Must confess I haven't explored this branch very much at moment (trying to track down who was Edwin's father at moment - and that's giving me enough problems  ???)

Still, if you think this Louisa might fit in with any of your family let me know and I'll see what else I've got on her.

Hertfordshire - BRADD / ROBLETT / THOROGOOD / WATSON
ABURN - BLANKS - BLOGG - BURGESS - FERRY - FREEMAN - GOODRICK - GOTTY -MEECH - MIDDLEDITCH -  RUSSELL - PLANT - THURSTON
