a Methodist Episcopal minister, was born in Monmouth County, N.J., May 12, 1806. He was early brought under the influence of the Friends, his parents probably being members of that society, which accounts for his life-long aversion to formality and display in religious services. He joined the Methodists in his fifteenth year; was licensed to preach in early manhood, and in 1841 entered the Ohio Conference, On the division of that conference in 1852 he became a member of the Cincinnati Conference, in which he continued to the close of his life. In 1868 he became superannuated, and settled on his farm in Miami County, where he remained until his death, September 23, 1876. Mr. Brown's life was exemplary and abundantly successful. See Minutes of Annual Conferences, 1877, page 89.
