Between 1639-1644, he signed with 12 others the Providence Compact. He owned a lot on “Towne Streete” (now South Main street and Market Square) along with the land where University Hall of Brown University now stands. The site was chosen by his descendants to establish the university in Providence on College Hill. Brown also served on a committee to determine the governance of the settlement while Roger Williams was in England from 1643-1644 gaining an official charter. His children were: John Brown I, born in 1630, England; d. 1706; m. Mary Holmes. Daniel Brown I, b. about 1645; d. 29 September 1710; m. Alice Hearndon. Phebe Brown, b. England; m. (1) Thomas Lee; m. (2) Greenfield Larrabee. James Brown I - b. England; d. 1683; m. Elizabeth Carr. Rhode Island's Brown University is named for Nicholas Brown, Jr. a descendant of Chad and Elizabeth Brown through James Brown II and his son Nicholas Brown, Sr. Jeremiah Brown I, born in 1634, England; d. 1690; m. (1) Mary Gardner; m. (2) Mary Cook Judah Brown Chad Brown II, d. May 10, 1663. Mary, d. May 10, 1643. Debrah, d. May 10, 1645. In 1639, Reverend Chad Brown assumed the leadership of the First Baptist Church in America, which had been briefly pastored by Roger Williams. During his pastorship, the church worshipped in a grove or orchard and in the houses of its members, and he remained pastor until his death sometime before 1650. His remains were initially interred near the corner of College and Benefit Streets, but they were moved in 1792 to the North Burying Ground. His wife, Elizabeth was listed a widow in the September 1650 Tax List. *************** Actual date of death is unknown, but occurred between 1644-1650, not in 1665 as the stone says.
