Information on 2 Great Aunts please
« on: Friday 09 March 18 16:10 GMT (UK) »
Hello
I have a lot of information on Browns, but not a lot on 2 of my Great Aunts, i would like to know please whether they were married, when they died etc.
I have the following information on the family Brown...

1901 census living at 230 Tennent Street Belfast

Father; William Brown aged 58 former Royal Irish Constabulary, C of I Born Co fermanagh

Mother; Elizabeth, nee Hand, aged 50, C of I Born Belfast

Daughter, Margaret Jane, born 1873, died 1891 aged 18 so not on census. Born Londonderry

Son, William Robert Brown ( my Great Grandfather), Born 1879 Londonderry, In the Army in 1900 so not on Irish census.

Son, Joseph, born Castlerock 1883. Named as  John Joseph but only used Joseph, the good people of this forum found him, see link, still cannot locate on 1901 census..

1911 Census
William, the Father has died. 1909
Elizabeth is now head of the family aged 61
Mary Elizabeth has married William Henry Chittick
Alice died in 1955 still a Brown, so i can assume she was not married, William, Margaret, Elizabeth and Alice are all buried in Belfast City cemetery..
