I have a Paton descendant who got in touch from Tasmania and he's curious to know more about Coventry Brown. I can now send him the links to profiles. Am encouraging him to become a Wikiteer too. :) Moira
I am happy to share our tree with relative Paton in Tassie. I am in Brisbane and in touch with another branch of Coventry Brown’s with a tree on Heritage. Please put him in touch. Where are you? Regards Richard
The researcher in Tasmania is John Cannon. I'll ask him if he's OK me connecting up the two of you. All the best, Moira
I was developing the 'story' about Mary Brownlie, daughter of Annabella Maria (Paton) McIntosh - in my family tree, and discovered you've already got William Brown up on Wikitree. I hope we can merge any profiles that need it, starting with this one., Many thanks, Moira
