1798 William EAGLE of Norfolk marries Ann Brann

OPR North Leith
William Eagle  
non commissioned officer in Capt. Varlo's company of the Norfolk Light Dragoons 
& Ann Brann or Bran
after the usual proclamations were married the 2nd June 1798

We have not found out anything about his birth or Ann's - we assume William was from Norfolk.
Norfolk is very much a EAGLE centre.

Brann baptisms Scotland 1760-1780 but none

William senior dies c1828 and Ann remarries in 1830

Note the OPR for 1798 marriage has BRAN and BRANN and then we have BRAND in 1830
As no baptisms for Bran - our Ann must have been a BRAND

OPR South Leith 1830
William Johnstone weaver in Leith and Anne Brand residing in Leith relict
of William Eagle watchmaker of Norfolk. After proclaiming of banns were married
1st November 1830 by the Rev James Robertson, minister Leith.
