Help-Dead End- Brown
« on: Tuesday 10 August 10 15:49 BST (UK) »
Can someone help me with this please

I am trying to find my Maternal Grandmother's line. We have very little information, and what we do have comes to a dead end.
She was Florence May Brown born in May 1900 in Aspartia(?). I can only find someone by the same name in Ulverston at this time. This line shows (in the 1911 census)she had 5 younger siblings (we were tod she was an only child) and that she was invalid, not attending school (I know this could be something as simple as chickenpox, broken arm etc, they were that vague back then). I need to try and discount this family. I have my grandparents b marriage Cert which claims her father was named John Brown (deceased) and his occupation was a farmer. On the 1911 census this shows he was an Ironworker, could he have changed professions or is this unlikley????
