Feedback/Suggestions / Edward Brown details and famil...
Last post by Max Turner - 09 May, 2024, 07:17:35 PM→ Edwin Brown's full name should be Edward Stanley Leech Brown, as listed on his birth, marriage, and death records, and also in electoral rolls.
Other than his nickname 'N*gger' (which seems to have been removed from the site at some point), it appears he was known as Eddie. He was listed as Edwin on the NRL and QRL websites, though I'm not sure of the reasoning behind that.
His WWI service file uses the spellling 'Leitch' for his middle name, which is potentially the original spelling of his grandmother's maiden name, but that seems to have changed through the generations and the 'Leech' spelling is most common for him.
→ Eddie was the father of Russell Brown. Russell was born 12 January 1931, and died 4 December 2005. His full name was Russell Stanley Joseph Brown.
→ Eddie's brother-in-law and Russell's uncle was Harry Sunderland, rugby league administrator and journalist. He doesn't currently have a profile on the site, but FYI, Harry's details are: born 23 November 1889 in Gympie, QLD, died 15 January 1964.

Also, it is the John Wilson who played for Western Division, not the ex-Parra halfback
