Robert BROWNE [32429]

  General Notes:

Robert was mentioned in the Will of Edward Rushe 4 Mar 1550/01 (but not mentioned in Robert Fenn's Will 1573)
He may have died between 1551 and 1573 but certainly before 1587

That Robert & Margery Browne are shown with 3 children John, Willian & Robert is based on Partidge Tree below.

  Research Notes:

Mike Fenn writes 2019
Some reflections on the Browne Family of Kenton and nearby villages. Locations may indicate that they are of the same family. At the moment we have found no baptism dates for the three children of Margery Browne so I am surmising that they were born before 1540. I also question the name of Robert given to her husband as there is no sign of a 'Robert' Browne burial that fits c1540-1543 before Margery's marriage to Edward Rushe. 'Robert' may of course have died c1539. I believe that the Robert declared as deceased in the 1587 Conveyance was the son of Margery who like 'Robert' her husband also married a Margery.

Thornham Magna 7.5 miles from Kenton
Thorndon is 4.5 miles from Kenton
Tannington is 4.5 miles from Kenton
Worlingworth is 3.5 miles from Kenton
Worlingworth 1.8 miles from Tannington. Significant perhaps in the 1587 conveyance.
Aspall is 3 miles from Kenton
Eye is 6 miles from Kenton

As well as Tannington I plan to examine the Parish Register for Worlingworth from 1540
I will be in the Ipswich SRO on the afternoon of 5^th December to look at wills and all day on 6^th December to concentrate on the parish registers.
Best wishes
Mike
