That was silly of me!

Let me add some references.

The family tended to be born and live in Brockweir and baptized in the Parish of Tintern and the Parish of Hewelsfield. Their life cycle tended to comprise Waterman in their younger lives and Publican of Royal Arms or Carpenter Arms in their later lives.

Thomas and Ann were married on 23 June 1800 in Bristol. I did see a remark in 2009 that it was popular to go and get married in Bristol - but frankly I am confused by this since they seemed to be born, live and die in a 3 mile radius?

The kids were - birth order
James Brown married Lois Ann Williams
Thomas Brown, died young
Temperance Brown married Henry Smith
Hannah Brown
George Brown married Amelia
Elizabeth Brown - bad girl, three illegitimate kids
Charles Marsh Brown married to Ellen Victoria Jenkins
William Brown
John Brown married Alice

Where I've left out surnames or middle names it is not sloppiness, I just don't have them.

Could I also ask if it is correct that there was about 6-9 day gap between breath and burial as appearing in the Book of Rememberance? I have these differences appearing in my research. I also note my relatives seemed a bit sloppy about getting around to the Baptisms - this time could stretch out a little.

Thanks in advance
