[Bann Valley] Brown of Trinaltinagh, Garvagh
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
