All the records I've seen about this John Browne, his father John Browne Jr., and his grandfather John Browne Sr. spell the name with an "e" at the end of "Browne". It would appear the best solution would be to merge Brown-1784 into Browne-1000, with Browne-1000 as the final ID. If there are records with it spelled "Brown", that alternate spelling could be added to the "other names" field.

Browne-1000 and Brown-17384 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, same name parents, Same birth year, same death year, same wife
