Identifier: MS.20760

Scope and Contents

The family tree is arranged in a series of charts dealing with branches of the family, to each of which corresponds a 'record', giving information on the individuals. The material was collected by Rachel Brown (1849-1924; see folios 15, 18) and her nephew Eric A Nobbs (1877-1956; see folios 14, 19) and arranged by the latter's second wife. The typescript was apparently made in 1952; there are a few later additions and corrections in manuscript.
