Research notes for Henry Browne
Some have parents as Sir Matthew Browne (1560-1603) FaG [101786172] and Lady Jane Vincent (1575–1629) FaG [176209103]. The following from a Browne researcher casts doubt:

Note for Matthew & Jane linked as Father & Mother: left by Jim Bradley

Hi,
I have found nothing to link this Henry to the family of Betchworth Castle other than trees copying him without any citations. There were numerous Browne imigrants around the same time with similar speculative matches. If there is no confirmed evidence, he is best left detached. Links to suggested parents can always be added in the bio. If there is first hand evidence to confirm a match, I would interested in the source.

Hope the edit is acceptable.

Links to Matthew & Jane removed from FaG on 6 May 2025.
