| The Brownsdon family originated in Devon, England or at least the first Brownsdon's I have identified lived in the Tavistock region of Devon in 1523. I have lost the family in this area by the second half of the 17th century until the name re-appears with the wedding of Richard Brownsden and Mary Edwards at Northleigh in eastern Devon in the year 1715. I have not established any link between the two families. Both Richard and Mary lived in nearby Lyme Regis in Dorset and the family remained there for the greater part of the 1700's.Since this event I have documented lines of descent to present day Brownsdon's in England, Canada and Australia which I will be only to happy to share with other family members or anyone who may be researching others who have married into the family over the years. | The Brownsdon Family World-wide Home Page Updated September 5, 2000 |
