Brown and two brothers John B. Brown and William Henry Brown. Somewhere I have a local map of Flambourough which shows where my Brown family lived and also shows the Kitchens farm location. I'll try and find it (I have boxes of research) The first listing is rather iffy, there seems to be two sets of John Brown & Mary Gemmil in the same time frame in Scotland....I don''t know if is an error in printing or perhaps two dfferent families reported them. However they were located in different villages.
