Eleanor BROWN

Husband: James EDMUNDS / EDMONDS
Birth: 25 Dec 1785, Providence, Providence Co., RI

The fact that Eleanor is older than James and that she is not living with her mother in the 1800 census both support that she did, indeed, have a prior husband. There are no DREWRYs in Cheshire Co. in the 1800 census, but there are some DRURYs.
