Additional Information
John’s parents, Andrew and Sarah, were married at St Marylebone church on 1^st January 1798. Their first child, Andrew, was baptized on 8^th March 1799. It is believed that John’s first wife, Elizabeth, was born on 14^th October 1797. The evidence for this is that on the baptism record the parents are stated to be Samuel and Ann Hall; these were the names of the witnesses at John and Elizabeth’s wedding in 1823. John’s wife Elizabeth died on 26 Aug 1834. There were two subsequent marriages of a Maria to a John Brown at St Pancras Parish Church in 1838. However, only for the Brown-Ley marriage is John Brown described as a widower and his father named Andrew. This raises a slight inconsistency, in that Maria is stated to be older than John in the 1841 census return, whereas her baptism record shows her to be younger. Henry’s wife Elizabeth Adelaide died within two years of their marriage, on 3^rd Jan 1860. Alfred’s wife Elizabeth was present at the death.
