[Bann Valley] Brown of Trinaltinagh, Garvagh

[Lunney Family <family@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Anyone interested in this family, who are listed in the 1796 Garvagh  
Visitation list? the son John Brown listed is the future minister of  
Aghadowey, who was minister for nearly 60 years from 1813-73. His  
brother Solomon was also a minister. I wonder if this family descend  
from a Solomon Brown listed in Kilrea Protestant Householders in  
1740? I am interested to know if anyone has information about their  
connection to Cornet Brown who died in action in the siege of Derry,  
and they are also said to be connected to Browns of Ballymena who  
were millionaire merchants in Liverpool and New York.

I'm interested because I am beginning  to wonder if my ancestor  
Robert Brown, who moved to a farm in Bovagh about 1835, could be  
another brother in this family; his age would be ok. No proof  
possible at the moment, I'm just intrigued

Robert Brown's daughters (possibly 11of them!) married into local  
families; think what that does to the network of local relationships
