        Marriage of a George Brown and Ann Parry at Salisbury in 1735??

        There seems to a number of possible children born to a George Brown and Rebecca at Overton ?? A Miram Biggs marries at Devizes in 1764 and a Rebecca in 1759 eg born in the 1730's??

        Another family of George Brown and his wife Jane have children christened in Overton about 1710. Second marraige to Rebecca?? This George Brown too young. What about the one born 1655. Too old then for this will.
