Hi,
I am new to genealogy searching on the internet so please forgive my errs.
My wife initially asked for my help in searching her family tree and has now left the ball in my court.
I am seeking assistance with the 4th most common family name on RootsChat - Brown, in particular Browns of the Elsdon area. What I have so far (please correct if I have anything incorrect):
