Re: Brew & Looney/Lewney Family.

Hi Jean, Thank you for the information and I agree, the 1880 Ann Brew burial looks very possible in the light of the 1871 Census and Jane's 1886 marriage. Such variable ages on the Censuses, as result of enumerator interpretation as well as people uncertain of their age in a time when there were no birth certificates to refer to!
The Robert Brew 2/4/1870 burial looks about right, giving a birth/baptism year from 1791 onwards. Many thanks for your findings, time and interest, it is greatly appreciated as I now have something more positive and to research.
