The christening of Eliz Broe is listed in the online church records of Irishgenealogy (http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie), which lists her Roman Catholic baptism as having taken place in 1830 in Rathfarnham, Dublin, Ireland, and that her parents were John Broe and Elizabeth.
In May 2011, Anne Modistach of New South Wales, Australia, provided the following information to the RBFO in reference to the family of John Broe and Elizabeth: "I have scoured New Zealand papers and articles for the period and Thomas Brough also had a brother Patrick who emigrated to New Zealand in around 1864 from Ireland. This Patrick has also been found in the Rathfarnham baptism records as being the son of John Broe and his wife Elizabeth. Patrick's baptism was in 1825 and is on the Irish Genealogy site together with other children Mary (or Maria) in 1821, Martin in 1828, and Eliza in 1830. Three other children of this family were born in Donnybrook: Henry, 1823, William, c1827, and George, 1834. Henry and George emigrated to Australia and operated sawmills in and around Deniliquin, New South Wales. An Irish researcher has documents including a bible given to Eliza by her brother Henry before his emigration. Henry died in New South Wales, and George returned to Dublin where he died a few years later. She [the Irish researcher] also has a funeral card stating that John senior died in 1858 in Blue Bell [Bluebell, County Kildare, Ireland] which was where one of the sawmills was located."
In March 2011, the RBFO obtained a copy of the death certificate of John Maitland Brough from New Zealand, which stated that he was born on 15 November 1912 in Hawera (on the North Island of New Zealand); that he had lived in New Zealand for 63 years (or since about 1913); that his father was George Gillies Brough, a Carrier; that his mother was Hettie Blanche Elizabeth Jackson; that he was married in Wellington at the age of 24 (in about 1936); that he married Ena Esme Anderson, who in 1976 was 61 years old (born about 1915); that he was the father of two female children: one age 34--born about 1942, and another age 30--born about 1946; that he died of "Bronchial asthma" and "Hypertension" on 16 September 1976 at Singatoka Hospital, Singatoka, Fiji; and that he was cremated at Karori (Wellington, North Island, New Zealand).

*** "This William is the only issue given in D 2."
**** "D 2 omits the wife of the last William, and makes his two daughters and heirs general, Anne and Elizabeth, his sisters. This would go far to prove that D 2 is a copy of an older book."

The "Burghs" or "Broughs"" of "Brough Hall" and "Brough near Catterick", Yorkshire, is listed in the book "The Victoria History of the Counties of England: A History of Yorkshire North Riding", by William Page, Editor, 1914, Volume 1, page 304 (FHL British Q Book: 942, H2vyn; or Website: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=64758),
Brough:
BROUGH (Burgh, till xvii cent.) was held by Tor before the Conquest and by Enisan of Count Alan in 1086. Enisan's successors, the lords of Constable Burton (q.v.), had a mesne lordship here. Among the tenants in 1286, when Brough was held in 'divers fees,' was evidently William de Burgh, who was party to an agreement concerning 7 oxgangs here in 1296 and was the principal tenant in 1301. He or his son William settled the manor in 1348 on himself in tail-male, with remainder to his daughter Elizabeth wife of Richard de Richmond, whose heirs took the name of Burgh. They were succeeded by a son John who died in 1412. His son William rebuilt Catterick Church. He died in 1442 and his son Christopher succeeded him. On his death without male issue the manor passed to the heirs of his younger brother William. William had two sons, William and George. The former left at his death sons William and Christopher. Their line, however, ended in heiresses and the manor passed to the heirs of George. Roger Burgh, his grandson, died seised in 1574; he seems to have broken the entail, for the manor was inherited by his daughter and heir Elizabeth wife of Sir Ralph Lawson. Ralph died in 1623, and was succeeded by his grandson Henry. He died in 1636, leaving a son and heir Roger. Roger was succeeded by his brother John, whose lands were sequestered in 1653, and sold by the treason trustees to John Rushworth. They were restored by Charles II, who made John Lawson a baronet in 1665. He was succeeded by his son Henry, who left a son John. John was succeeded by another Henry, who also had a son John. This Sir John died without issue, and the estate and baronetcy passed to his brother Henry, who was succeeded in 1834 by his nephew William Wright, son of his sister Elizabeth. William took the name of Lawson, and was made a baronet in 1841. His grandson Sir Henry Joseph Lawson is the present baronet.3)
Historical Information about the "Broughs" of "North Cowton", Yorkshire, is listed in the book "A History of Yorkshire North Riding: The Victoria History of the Counties of England" (by William Page, London, England, 1968, Volume 1, page 75; FHL Book # 942, H2vyn), which states the following: "In 1435-1436, John Brough was returned as holding one knight's fee in North and South Cowton. From him the manor [of Gilling] descended through his son William [Brough], his grandson and great-grandson of the same name to his great-great-grandson William Brough, who left daughters and co-heirs Anne [Brough] and Elizabeth [Brough]. Anne [Brough] was married to Thomas Tempest, who died seised of North Cowton Manor about 1544, leaving a daughter and heir Anne [Tempest] wife of Sir Ralph Bulmer. Sir Ralph Bulmer died seised in 1558 in right of his wife, leaving daughters and heirs Joan [Bulmer], Frances [Bulmer], and Millicent [Bulmer], Joan [Bulmer] being married to Francis Cholmly in her father's lifetime. In 1564, 1565 and 1566 the co-heirs and their husbands granted severally one-eighth of the manor to Sir George Bowes, to whose son Sir William [Bowes] the whole manor came at his death".
