Research Summary by R. Clayton Brough, 25 March 2001:
During the past 20 years, RBFO genealogists have spent considerable time and expense in trying to identify the Richard Brough of the mid-1600's who was the direct ancestor of Richard Brough who married Mary Horleston in 1825. In the 1980's, the RBFO published two books which stated that this "missing" Richard Brough was probably Richard, the son of Richard Brough and Rebecca Fowler of Windygates, Staffordshire. However, the RBFO Genealogical Research Committee now believes this published relationship is incorrect, and presented the following information about this matter in its 2000 book "The Broughs of Staffordshire, England, and their English, American and Australian Descendants," 2000, pages 70-71:
"In the 1980's the RBFO published two books which stated that 'two children were born to Richard Brough...and his wife Rebecca Fowler: Richard...and Thomas, both born in 1650 and both possibly twins.' (1981 RBFO book, p.51; and 1988 RBFO book, pp. 28-29.) This conclusion was based on the fact that 'Fowler of Salt' in the 1663-1664 Heralds' Visitations of Staffordshire (p..140) stated that 'Rebecca,' the daughter of 'Richard Fowler of Bartomley in Cheshire' and 'wife to Richard Brough' of 'Wyndeyates' Staffordshire, had a son named 'Richard' who was '13' years of age in '1663.' Based on this fact, RBFO researchers initially accepted this Richard Brough, who was supposedly born in 1650, as one of the direct ancestors of Richard Brough who married Mary Horleston in 1825–and who the Richard Brough Family Organization is named after. Unfortunately, later research did not uncover any other listing in available religious or civil documents of such a Richard–although his brother(?) Thomas appeared in the Leek Parish Register. Also, this supposed Richard of 1650 was not even mentioned in the Will of his father(?), Thomas Brough, dated 18 October 1654–as was his brother(?) Thomas. Needless to say, the preponderance of evidence against the existence of this supposed Richard of 1650 continued to grow until RBFO researchers agreed with the following 1992 statement by Catharine Ann Brough Hind of England:
"Richard son of Richard and Rebecca as depicted on the Fowler pedigree is nobodies ancestor. If as his uncle declared at the 17thc visitation Rebecca did have a son called Richard, he died in infancy. No, I believe that what [his] Uncle recollected was that his sister had a child who carried a Brough family name...and he misremembered whose. Remember that distance, travel and communication were scant and entrusted to memory."
It is known that Thomas Burgh and Ann Cooke of Middle Hulme, Leek had two known sons: Richard (born about 1579) and Lionel (born about 1582). Richard (b.abt.1579) apparently inherited lands adjoining Middle Hulme, Kingsley or Ipstones, while Lionel (b.abt.1582) inherited a messuage and land in Middle Hulme. In fact, family indentures and legal documents name these two sons amongst their descendants. Also, the tandem ownership of Brough properties, similar given-name patronymics, and their related occupations and positions make it probable that the Broughs of Kingsley and Ipstones were related to the Broughs of Middle Hulme, Leek.
Richard Burgh (Brough, b.abt.1579) was buried "of New Grange" (near Middle Hulme), Leek, on 19 March 1635/1636. He and his wife had "dependants"--including but probably not limited to--a daughter Alicia (chr.1608) and a son Richard (born about 1620). This Richard Brough (b.abt.1620) married an Ann in about 1656, and they had seven children, with the first six children born or christened in Kingsley and the last child christened in Ipstones. The first child and son of Richard and Ann was also named Richard, who was born about 1657. This Richard married a Margaretae in about 1680, and they had six children born or christened in Ipstones.
Regarding the genealogical and geographical relationships between the Broughs of Kingsley, Ipstones and Middle Hulme, Leek, Catharine Ann Brough Hind has stated the following: "Richard Brough [who was christened in 1688 in Ipstones, married Ann (Mary) Mellor in 1716 in Leek, and was buried in 1768 in Meerbrook, and who was the great-grandfather of Richard Brough who married Mary Horleston] was baptising children at Meerbrook in the 18thc [or 1700's]. I am confident that it was that Richard who witnessed [in 1754] the Will of my ancestor Isaac Barber, blacksmith and innkeeper of Meerbrook.... William Brough my gt gt gt grandfather was Isaac's son-in-law. This has always prompted me to suppose that Richard was a member of the Middlehulme Broughs." (Hind Research Reports to the RBFO, page 261, 24 June 1995.) Additionally, Ann Hind has stated: "There is a good reason to wonder whether your Richard [Brough of the early-mid 1600's] was of Middlehulme for they as much as Windygates favored the patrimonies of Thomas, John, William and Richard. ...If we look at that tandem ownership closely we will see that it is not only hard-by to Ipstones but also to Kingsley and that in the triangle that is those two places and Calton Cross-roads the Middlehulme family had properties in that and several preceding centuries and made numbers of marriages with the most solid Gentry/Yeomanry families there. (Hind Research Reports to the RBFO, page 292, 24 September 1998.) ...The tandem homes, businesses and estates of the Middlehulme Broughs focused around the Fryth, Ipstones and Kingsley and into Leek itself from c. 1780 until the mid-20th c. and I had pondered and sought for your line in those places and amongst the fringes of our clan...." (Hind Research Reports to the RBFO, page 329, 7 December 1999.)
In addition, the following statements have been made by Catharine Ann Brough Hind to the RBFO during the past decade:
24 June 1995: "Richard Brough [who was christened in 1688 in Ipstones, married Ann (Mary) Mellor in 1716 in Leek, and was buried in 1768 in Meerbrook, and who was the great-grandfather of Richard Brough who married Mary Horleston] was baptising children at Meerbrook in the 18thc [or 1700's]. I am confident that it was that Richard who witnessed [in 1754] the Will of my ancestor Isaac Barber, blacksmith and innkeeper of Meerbrook.... William Brough my gt gt gt grandfather was Isaac's son-in-law. This has always prompted me to suppose that Richard was a member of the Middlehulme Broughs." (Hind Research Reports to the RBFO, page 261.)
24 September 1998: "There is a good reason to wonder whether your [missing] Richard [Brough of the mid 1600's] was of Middlehulme for they as much as Windygates favored the patrimonies of Thomas, John, William and Richard. The Broughs of Brownsett/Brownford/Brownsword did have some Richards too, but in the main they went for Robert, Ralph, Anthony and Edmund. ...If we look at that tandem ownership closely we will see that it is not only hard-by to Ipstones but also to Kingsley and that in the triangle that is those two places and Calton Cross-roads the Middlehulme family had properties in that and several preceding centuries and made numbers of marriages with the most solid Gentry/Yeomanry families there." (Hind Research Reports to the RBFO, page 292.)
7 December 1999: "I am going to ramble a little off course, but with an ultimate aim, so please bear with me. Thomas Brough, gentleman, of Middlehulme (he after whose property young Thomas led his uncle John) married Margaret...of the great Adams potting family of Burslem. Their son Thomas married Edith, a daughter of the great engineering and gentry family of Brindley at Kingsley; where Thomas had a great aunt, aunt and sister all married into families with whom Middlehulme had business and land indentures at Kingsley and 'of Kingsley'. For the most part these were interests in mines...iron foundries and smithies.... Thomas indentured Middlehulme to his oldest son John and went with Benjamin his younger son to Burston near Sandon where he had agreements with a tanner and possibly had other children there. The period, start to finish, of this story, is 1660 to 1775...the same time-span as that in which your search fits and in several instances the very same places give-or-take a mile or two! The tandem homes, businesses and estates of the Middlehulme Broughs focused around the Fryth, Ipstones and Kingsley and into Leek itself from c. 1780 until the mid-20th c. and I had pondered and sought for your line in those places and amongst the fringes of our clan...." (Hind Research Reports to the RBFO, page 329.)
23 January 2001: "One other thing I have been doing. I reread all battles and movements of troops in and around mid and north Staffordshire in the Civil War to match with burial dates. I once noted how many died around Leek in the 1640's. However, there is nothing tallying in this selection. No doubt you have spotted how many gaps there are for all periods and places. People one expected to see have not been gathered in. The [LDS Genealogical] Society probably works from another perspective." (Hind Research Reports to the RBFO, page 499.)
20 March 2001: Regarding the marriage of "older men"--such as Richard Brough who was probably past thirty years of age when he married Ann in about 1656--Catharine Ann Brough Hind wrote the following to the RBFO on 20 March 2001: "Generally, country-men...of farming and business ways of life did not...marry before early middle-age. Many court[ed] for years.... Generally speaking it has to do with property...parents (especially widowed mothers) have to be taken into consideration and/or money has to be saved to buy-out brothers and sisters or to get established in ones own farm or business. ...Girls [today] would never stand for being asked to play second-fiddle and [many do not] care...about the formality of marriage...." [She then mentioned several Brough men who were married at the documented age of: 50, 43, 39 and 38.] (Hind Research Report to the RBFO, page 538, 20 March 2001.)Richard Brough is listed in FamilySearch Tree, PID#: L6J6-VZ7.
The burial of "Ann [the] w.[widow] of Richard Brough" is listed in the parish register of Kingsley, Staffordshire (FHL Book # 942.46, B4pr, V.66, p.118), which states that she was buried on 1 September 1696 in Kingsley.

(Reference book: "Staffordshire Parish Registers Society: Parish of Kingsley and Cheadle," FHL book # 942.46, B4pr, V.66, p.118.) However, according to an exact copy of the Kingsley parish record, provided to the RBFO in September 2000 by the Staffordshire Record Office in England, "Ann the wife of Richard Brough was buried Sep 1 [1696]." This means that Richard Brough died sometime after Ann was buried.
