Classification: Query
Surnames: Brown, le Brun, Hodgson, Henderson, Chaplin
Discovered my great great grandfather Henry Brown b.1814 was a circus clown and owner? please can anyone supply info on his sons Edgar and Frank or anyone else in family.
Edgar (Edgardo)Brown was in Buenos Aires in 1898 when his daughter Edith was born he was an acrobat/trapeze artiste.
Edith stage name was Edie le Brun in the 1920's/30's and was styled as Britain's premier lady juggler.She did marry? a second time to an ex member of the eight Lancashire Lads of Charlie Chaplin historical reference but can not find a record of his surname Hodgson or Henderson his christian names were Sidney Charles Octavius
Would welcome any info on any of the above from both circus and music hall contacts
