Who is Rachael BROWN and what became of her!   Rachael BROWN had 3 children chr. at Horncastle, no father for the children was listed and she was listed as a domestic servant. Charles Thomas BROWN chr.2Oct. 1831, William Henry BROWN chr.20 June 1833, Jane BROWN chr.26 Oct. 1834.   I know Charles Thomas BROWN marr.1855 Hull to Mary Elizabeth JACKSON and  by 1881 cenus was living in Sheffield listed as Thomas BROWN. They were my g.g.grandparents. On his marriage certificate he gave his fathers name as Thomas BROWN, a joiner.   Can't seem to find a relevant marriage for Rachael BROWN so she may have been unmarried, and doesn't seem to be on Cenus returns for 1841 or 1851 nor her children.   She may be Rachael BROWN b 1810 daughter of John BROWN & Elizabeth BELLAMY. She may be Rachael BROWN mar.2 Dec. 1845 Holy Trinity Church, Kingston upon Hull to Thomas Simpson LONGMORE. or even Rachael BROWN d. 1845 Gainsborough.   I hope someone can help with information about her, her birth family and her 2 children William Henry BROWN & Jane BROWN and what became of them.   As I live in New Zealand searching Hull and Lincolnshire is difficult as everything seems to be listed as , "you can go in and search"   Thanking you in advance, Jenny

Hi Joyce, You didn't say what the married name was. You can search the NZ Historic BDM online and order a death entry or work out the day of death by cutting back the period searched. The death entry might give you a place of birth and number of years living in New Zealand.What you need is the 1871 English Census.

Any advise or help appreciated by myself and Tracy (daughter in law) Kind regards, Kath

For many years Dr Malvin was Medical Officer of the Scarborough Union, and relinquishing this office he retired to Newby. His earliest association with Scarborough was as Medical Officer during the building of the Scarborough and Whitby Railway. He had a large general practice and covered a wide Country area. This entailed much road work which the Doctor, being a keen lover of horses, covered on horseback. He held high office in Free Masonry. The funeral will take place at Scalby on Thurday afternoon. >From the Scarborough Evening News Wed June 10th 1942 Malvin - June 8th, at Moor Lane, Newby, Scarborough, Mark, M.R.C.S., L.R.C.P.

Hi Roy, I agree it is harder to read all capital letters. I use capitals for surnames to make them stand out but I am a touch typist not a 2 finger typist so it is possible that Alan didn't realise and found it easier to type in caps. Alan, I would have typed "My grandfather (Edward HURLSTONE) married a lady from Hull Sarah Lavinia SHAW, maiden name RAITHBY and then the rest in lower case. It is so much easier to read in a hurry and identify if the family is one we have some information on.
