    Default BROWN's of Nottingham (I know)

    I need help with 2 brothers of the BROWN family.
    The first is Charles BROWN, dob 15/10/1880. There are 2 Charles BROWN on FreeBMD registered in Basford and Nottingham in the December quarter 1880. His parents were Arthur BROWN, dob 1856 and Mary Ann MITCHELL, dob
    1862. I am looking for Charles' marriage and 2 daughters. One daughter was called Joan, I'm told.

    The second is Lot BROWN, dob 20/10/1885. FreeBMD has his birth registered at Basford in the December quarter 1885, vol 7b, page 178. He had 2 daughters, one was called Jean. His wife was supposed to have been called Ginny, but it seems an unusual name for the period. I thought it might be a diminutive of Virginia, Georgina, Regina etc, but can't find anyone likely on FreeBMD. I found a Jean B. BROWN's birth in March quarter 1924, Nottingham, with a mother surname of WOOLLEY. I found a marriage of a Lot BROWN to a Jane Elizabeth WOOLLEY on FreeBMD in the June quarter 1913, Nottingham, vol 7b, page 410. Jane Elizabeth WOOLLEY was born in 1895, so 10 years younger than Lot if they are the right couple.

    Would someone with access to Ancestry and/or the 1911 census please see what you can find for me.

    Thankyou
