Kent / Brown family of Farningham, Kent c. 1820
« on: Saturday 24 October 15 00:24 BST (UK)  »
Hello all,

A query as to whether anyone has access to old Farningham newspapers, 1828. I am looking for any tidbits of information on my ancestor George Brown, blacksmith of Farningham, died July 1828. I have no information on his family except the birth of his three children in Farningham - George, Mary and Hester, from 1819 to 1822. His wife was called Mary someone, born 1782 in Horne, Surrey. George was born around 1774, place unknown. I have found him in the Pigott's directory, I believe 1824, liviing in Farningham. I can find no marriage for George and Mary anywhere in Surrey, nor in Farningham. Any help would be greatly appreciated.   :)

Channel Islands Lookup Requests / James Clegg death on Jersey
« on: Sunday 08 February 15 00:26 GMT (UK)  »
Hello. I have been searching in vain for the death of a James Clegg on Jersey, likely between 1863 and 1871. Someone kindly checked the death registers on Jersey but found nothing. He appeared on the 1861 census but by 1871 his wife Eliza was listed a widow. I have searched English BMDs as well as he was born in Devon, but no luck. I am out of ideas as to where he went.

Thanks!
