Anna Browning LJBQ-ZSG
I'm trying to determine the parents of my 5th great grandmother, Anna Browning. There is some speculation that she is the daughter of Samuel Browning (LHD5-3NF) and Mercy Clark (M6H9-CJM), but no definite evidence. My cousin, Karen Stark, discusses this in her book, The Joseph Eggleston Family (p. 38), which is available in the FamilySearch catalog. Does anyone know how I can find birth records that go back that far? She may have been born in 1715, not 1725.

Lorene; There are two sources cited in Anna's FamilySearch record by tmckinney and geraldeggelston2. I would go to the sources on her record and message both of these and ask where they got the information. That may help you find her parents. If that is unsuccessful please comment on this post and we will see what we can dig up in the Rhode Island Wiki. Hoping your search goes well.

OK, thank you.

Lorene; Looking at Anna's record, there appears to be a discrepancy. Her birth date is 1725 and her marriage date is 1734. One or both of these dates is probably wrong. I suggest you look at the sources cited and see if you can find anything. We can help you search through them if you need it.
