Yes, the father is William Royce Brown (Fiddler Brown). He was in the Crimean war, I managed by some luck last year to get his 2 medals. He is buried in Oakham cemetary and had a military funeral through Oakham. I have a newspaper transcript of funeral and copy of a photo I got from others on this thread. I might try to see if there is any further info on him at PRO at Kew. I think your William was the only son of William Royce Brown to leave Rutland to go to London
