The subject of this sketch was born in 1839, on the farm where he now resides and has resided all his life: he now has about 200 acres in Sec. 36, including both the tracts owned by his father and grandfather: thus the memorias and labors of two generations past cluster around this homestead. Mr. Brown was married in 1863 to Sarah Judy, daughter of David Judy; her death occurred in 1873; they had two children, one living, Frank. Mr. Brown's marriage with Miss Elnora Bell Byers, was celebrated Dec. 6, 1879. [Source: from Beers, W. H.
