    3. Hello Listers, Would a kind soul be able to help me find Peter BROWN. In the Creetown Cemetery, there is a gravestone for: "Peter BROWN lost at sea 20 October 1810 aged 38". Peter had an elder brother named Capt. John Brown b. 1764; d. 5 Jan 1806 aged 42 - who was probably also a seafarer. Their parents were John Brown (tenant of Belhazie) and Agnes SHAW. Would there be a story in the Wigtown Free Press or other newspapers about Peter's shipping accident in 1810? I'd be very grateful for your information. Best wishes Sybil Cameron
