1. Elizabeth, mentioned in the will of Henry Hartwell, Esq.[2] Elizabeth, the daughter, is not mentioned in the will of her father nor are any possible children, so it seems likely that she died unmarried sometime between 1699 and Dec. 1704 (the date of William Browne's will).[5]

Origins

From http://www.shirleyassociation.com/NewShirleySite/NonMembers/Surname...

[Henry and Anne Browne had a son, Barclay Browne, who seems to have died without issue; and a daughter and eventual heiress, Mary Browne. Mary Browne married a William Browne, who was clearly a relation. He had come to Virginia in 1637 as a Headright of Thomas Gray, who patented 100 acres in James City County in 1643 on the east side of Gray's Creek, adjoining his own land, for the transportation of two persons: George Graves and William Browne].
