Hello Colleen. I neglect to add to my query that this Nicholas BROWN/ BROWNE, after arriving in Aquidneck, lived there all his life, and died there in 1694. He also is seen in Savage's and in Austin's "Dictionary". THe four children of Nicholas are William, Nicholas2, Abraham, and Jane. These children are all 'accounted for' as well as their descendants - some of them past the 4th generation. I am hoping to learn whether Nicholas spent time in MA (and where) long enough to marry and have children. Thank you, Patricia
