Hi Again,
I think there might be a little confusion arising with the BROWN/BROWNEs.
Let’s take a moment to examine where the records part company from the information located in your other reputable historical resource.
All I can do is present what I see in the official records.
It will be up to you with your fingertips on your exptensive family information to sort the wheat from the chaff.
Best of Luck.
Cheers,
Stephanie.
Fact 1:
There is no child of any BROWN/BROWNE family listed as born on the 20th of March, 1856 in South Australia. In fact there are only two BROWNs born in the whole of March for that year and no BROWNEs.
However, there is an indirect BROWN connection to a date close to the one you have presented. It’s a very long bow though. Her sibling was William.

Fact 4:
There is one BROWN Family with Honora as one of the names of a child. She died young. This family also has a Fred and a Mary. With a surname such as HELIER, the mother could well hail from The Channel Islands; HEHIR being quite a good fist of English transliteration from the French pronunciation. There are no BROWNE families with a Honora. as a name of a child.
