Maritz,

This just isn't adding up in any direction.

Could you please tell us how you have worked back to Susannah and how you know where she was born? Also, how do you know her parents' names?

If you are certain that the family we have above with children Mary Ann, Susannah, Thomas and Helen is the correct one, then I am inclined to believe that those parents may well be James and Susannah (Rooney) ? - They certainly do not appear to be connected with the name Brownhill/Brownbill .

Do you have any actual proof of any of this?

It might well be a different couple but there are these 2 births with mmn Brownhill:

Only Mary Ann's birth seems to have been registered with Brownhill as a mm name?
