Hi all,

I am trying to find the grave of GEORGE BROWNING abt 1848 - OCT/NOV/DEC 1891. His last known residence was 37 Maida Road, Luton, Chatham in the 1891 census. The parish on this census was St Mary's but this has been crossed out.

Any information or images would be greatly appreciated :-)

Many thanks

• this is a very long shot but i have been trying to track down a connection with a Dora Hill. This is not for family tree reasons but i came across a book that was presented to this lady. Would the Dora Hill you are talking of have gone to the College of Commerce in Gillingham in 1935 ?

He was married to Ann(nee Webb) and worked at the Chalk Pits~being Manager by the 1841 Census.They had quite a few children~ two of whom we have traced. Are there descendents of any of the others - Elizabeth~ Wiliam~ Hannah~ Sarah etc?

I am looking for descendants of the Spain~ Belsey~ Drew~ Powell and Agutter families. They have connections with the Howling family from North Norfolk believed to be through a railway connection. John Howling was a train driver~ thought to be L.N.E.R and it was his son Robert who married Susanna Belsey in 1892 in Dover. They had 4 children one of whom was Beatrice. I am hoping that somebody reading this site is related in some way.****There are naval connections in the Belsey family one of whom crewed a Lightship out in the Thames Estuary.
