hello

I'm thinking this may be a long shot but I am at a lost where to search, my 3x great granddad was Charles Brown a seaman ,and according the  census he was born around 1832 Sweden. he married Sarah Ann Holman in hull (although she is from exeter,devon) 1853, I do not have the cert but on the ancestry index it says his dad was Magnus brown. Charles and Sarah  do not appear on a census together in 1861 she is in Exeter and 1871 Cardiff both times a mariners wife.
i have the 1881 census a  widower living with edith brown b 1865 at 22 amhurst street cardiff this census states born hull but all the others say sweden british subject.
1891 living with married  daughter edith thomas and her family, amhurst street
1901 and 1911 census all in cardiff and he died 1917 cardiff.
I have found in the Dorset, England, Crew Lists, 1863-1914 on ancestry a charles brown 1832 from gothenburg (a possible him ) on ship Aurora based poole.
Any help greatfully received please. id like to trace him back to sweden or at least to when he came here
thank you
jo

im after some help please or thoughts
I am helping my cousin with her tree, her dad was adopted sadly he died a couple years ago, I have managed to find who his birth mum was - Annie elthel l Hall 1908 Lambeth,  and trace a living 2nd cousin.
Annies parents were annie Eleanor Reynolds and henry hall and its this chap im stuck on. I have him on the 1911 census where he states he is 24 and born Lambeth. he was married in 1907, I don't have that cert but I have spoke to the living descendant who has said the father is a harry Hall and a kilnman at pottery.
He told me that his dad Leonard b 1930 which is (Annie e l's brother and has now passed) told him that his dad (henry)died when he was born so didn't know him and that he (henry)was an orphan and bought up in a children's home and never new his parents .
So im stuck, its confusing but I don't see how henry could of put it on the marriage cert if he did not know his dad and any information is 2nd hand because the dads passing so young.
There are a couple possible births but how do I rule in or out?
Annie E L -> Henry hall -> possible Harry Hall??? (just cos i'm not sure I explained it too well)

Afternoon, Ive received a death certificate today for Elizabeth  Thomas and it states she died suddenly from heart failure and certificate received from the coroner, inquest held 28 march 1904. does anyone have any knowledge where I may find more details please? I have searched papers online  but cant find anything and i'm not local to come to the library in Cardiff. any guidance would be lovely, I have read records may not of been kept but if they were I don't no where anyway. thank you.

good morning.
I have a bit of a mystery I have Eliza Taylor my 2x great grandmother, she was born in  Barton Fields, Gloucestershire according to the censuses. I am struggling to confirm her parents  because I thought they were  Joseph Taylor (labourer)  and Ann Vaile,  Piece 1768 Folio 66 Page number 39 1861 census. I ordered her marriage cert to William jones in 1874 confirm things but the dad says John Taylor and I think it reads Forman at timber merchant. the witnesses are Ellen jones and albert Taylor who I believe are William and Eliza brother and sister. address at marriage is 1 something villa (I think it reads Littleton villa). brook street. joseph and Ann lived 9 brook street. here is the census for 1881 showing Eliza and William Piece 5279 Folio 7 Page number 11 . there is a birth certificate that I can order but if I have the wrong dad this birth to mum vaile would be wrong. Is it possible john and joseph are the same person? would such a mistake be made on the marriage cert? its handwritten
If anyone has any thoughts id be grateful thank you
