I've found an entry which may or may not be my Joseph Brown, butcher, granted freedom of the city 4th Feb / 19th May 1801, son of Joseph Brown of Edmonton, Middlesex, farmer. I know I've looked at other records for that Joseph before and thought he might be mine but I still need to find something to prove he's the same Joseph. I suppose that's what the "shoebox" facility on ancestry's for. I've only ever used it by mistake before!
