William BrownE - 1475 of Derbyshire, England 

I descend from William Browne of Derbyshire, England, b. ca. 1475. Best known of the Browne 
ancestors was Sir William Browne, who died in 1610. The Brownes 
settled in London after Sir William's death. About 1630, one 
grandson, Nathaniel Browne, went to Connecticut; another, Robert 
Browne, went to Bermuda, and his son Abell to Maryland; the family 
here mostly became Brown. Cousins are all over the US, known and yet 
to be found.

NB: There are several generations recorded both before and after this report. This is just a sample.
