• Fact: Also Known As Robert Brown
• Fact: Christening (1 January 1761) Lowestoft, Suffolk, England

• Fact: http://familysearch.org/v1/LifeSketch Wife Sarah married again to John CLARK after Robert's death. She was the daughter of James Thurtell and Winifred NUNN. Robert's gravestone reads: "Sacred to the Memory of Robert Brown who died September 6th 1813 Aged 52 Years" and Sarah's reads " Sarah the Wife of John Clark formerly Widow of above Robert Brown who died November 16th 1818 Aged 59 Years". Robert and Sarah lived in Bradwell for about 10 - 12 years after their wedding, and then went to Pudding Norton Hall some time between 1797 and 1812. After Robert died, Sarah appears to have left her son and daughter in law in Pudding Norton and gone to live in Southtown, just a couple of miles from Bradwell, where she lived for the rest of her life. [Pudding Norton is one of Norfolk's "lost villages", just south of Fakenham.
