MUSSEN and associated families

[jennigal923]

Hi

The Moses Brown who married Rachel Mussen, is a distant cousin of mine. His full name was Moses Douglas Brown, born abt 1847 in Armagh (Likely Lurgan). Rachel was his 3rd wife, and he is still alive and shows on the 1911 census, married but living alone. I don't know what this couple's story was, and they seem to no have had any children.

Hi

I am wondering if you have found who the parents are of Minnie Mussen, listed as living with her Uncle John Mussen in the 1901 census?  In the 1911 census she is married to Mathew Douglas, and has her Aunt Rachel Brown nee Mussen living with her.  What we are trying to determing is if Minnie is a daughter of Rachel Brown (even though last name is Mussen ... perhaps born before Rachel Mussen married Moses Brown)?   A birth record would be helpful )

Hello, Jennie.  My name is Susan Cunningham and I have a Minnie Mussen in my family.  Minnie was born in Lenaderg, Co. Down on June 28, 1880 to Joseph Mussen and Ann Jane Walker.  She had at least two siblings - Edith and Agnes Mussen who both emigrated to Bracebridge, Ontario, Canada. I am the great-grandaughter of Edith Mussen.

Hi I came across this thread.. I've seen my great great grandmother mentioned Minnie. She is Rachel Brown's daughter born before her marriage to Moses Brown. Some people on ancestry have linked this family back to France?

My earliest ancestor was Charlotte Mussen, born circa 1805 in Dromore (?)who Married William McConnel in Dromore. Anyone know anything more about her?

I'm a descendant of Francis Weldon and Charlotte (Mussen) Weldon, here's a link to Charlotte Mussen Weldon which may help in terms of the Mussen family members and their family tree.
