Have just received the death certificate for an Ann Brown. Date of death: 24 March 1840. Ann Brown. Female. 45 years. Lunatic Patient. Cause of death Pulmonary Consumption .Informant GP Button Surgeon in attendance County Lunatic Asylum NORWOOD. Registration District: Uxbridge Union. Sub District Hayes Middlesex.  Bit disappointed really  thought she was born earlier than 1795, if she was born then she would only have been about 17/18 years when she married Daniel. If this is her then the hospital may not have known her date of birth  when admitted.? Regards Violet May

 :DearTom I have been missing for a long time due to circumstances, now we are into another set which will obviously be coped with.  But if you are right you will have the answer to my dreams. And a Christmas gift too.  I have never found the date of Daniel Brown senior's death and you say it was 1864, do you know where it occurred? I have bought several death certificates but everyone was the wrong person, wrong occupation, wrong child witness etc etc.  You know I really am looking for his daughter Rosetta born 1825 who was my husband's great great grandmother, she disappeared after giving birth to our great grandfather who was put into the care of the Foundling Hospital in 1847. She had son Edward Warr Brown. When he went into the care of the Foundling Hospital his name was changed to William Hancock. That is why we are called Hancock. I would love to hear more about your ancestor from the Brown family. If you feel like telling me more please do so. Regards and thanks for the info   Beth and John Hancock

Thanks Alan  I belong Ancestry but have been unable to find Rosetta on a Tree, however I will look again. Also I sort of knew about the one landing in New Brunswick but cannot get further information. However I feel she may have gone to Canada. See you soon
