I suspect that the last time I looked at these people, FamilySearch was only letting me view a few Norfolk PR images at a time before coming up with an error message. Hopefully I can browse through them properly now!

Found her baptism on FamilySearch - image no 10 of the Baptisms, Marriages and Burials. It's not very clear but I think it says she was born July 11th and baptised July 28th.

Hmm, FreeREG has the marriage of a William Brown(e), widower, to a Hannah Bangay, widow, 30 May 1791 at St Paul, Norwich, witnesses Robert Wall and Robert Deary. There is a possible burial for Richard Bangay in 1788 but it says he is a widower which would mean that Hannah was dead by then if it is the same Richard, but I could never find a burial for Hannah. I can't remember whether I ever checked the actual image for that Richard Bangay one, and FamilySearch is acting up at the moment, but even if it really does say that, I suppose it could be a mistake.

Edit - I have managed to check the image now and it does say widower but maybe it is a mistake.

Possible burial from FreeREG - Hannah Brown buried 20 Dec 1809 St Stephens, Norwich, age 63, widow. Of course there are lots of Hannah Browns around.

And a few possible burials for William Brown, including one on 11 May 1794 at St Paul, Norwich, age 71, married man, pauper.

I'm thinking there may be information on these people in the Norfolk Poor Law records on FamilySearch but they aren't indexed yet and there are a lot of "B" pages to look through!

I've just posted on the Abigail Bangay thread that I have found an Abigal Bangay, daughter of Richard and Hannah, baptised in 1770, and buried in 1772 as Abigail Wade, daughter of Hannah Wade. Now looking at FamilySearch, there are a few baptisms of children with mother Hannah Wade and no father's name, so I need to look through those now.
