Research notes for William Browne IV
The following is incorrect, as Boddie skipped a generation. Sally Edward Browne is the GRANDDAUGHTER of William, not daughter,
“He left an only daughter, Sally Edward Browne, by his first wife. The children of his second wife died young.” 66
Note that above conflicts with info as shown from RAC.
None of his children left issue except William Browne. His will dated June 19, 1783, was proved in Surry, June 27, 1786. There was a codicil dated March 27, 1786. By reason of having married a Sally Edwards, sister of Hannah Edwards who married Henry Browne, he designates as “nephews” William and Henry Browne, sons of Henry. 670
