yeah the initial info gathered was not right but we do have this original copy of the birth certificate with his parents names Walter Mitchell and Mary Ann Rachel Mitchell. 82 Sherbourne Rd Balsall Heath.

Ok, so I now have the Birth Certificate that my Great Grandfather Frank Brown had in his possessions. My Grandmother had been told by him that he was a merchant seaman who jumped ship in Port Kembla Harbour and somehow assumed the name Frank Brown. If anyone can shed some light on Ernest Mitchell or if it helps fill a gap in the family history for the Mitchells that would be great.

Thanks all for you replies. Appears we need to start again on the Frank Brown end.

Hi and welcome to RootsChat  :D

This appears to be the family you are referring to in 1891, but the census details do not match what you are saying.  Where has your information come from?

Hi all, a little while back we started some work on our family tree here in Australia. My great grandfather was Frank Brown, or so we thought. Turns out he was Ernest Mitchell born 02/06/1882 Birmingham, West Midlands. He had 10 siblings, William, George, Emily, Walter, Frederic, Herbert, Lillian, Mabel, Minnie and Maude. All born in St Leonards except William who was the eldest born in 1875 in Ninfield Sussex. His parents were Mary Ann Rachel Mitchell 1862 Brakland, Kent and father was Walter Mitchell 1853, Warburton, Sussex.

Any info appreciated
Wayne
