Short Genealogy Info:
- SAMUEL
BROWN: who was known to all early settlers as “Deacon” Brown—was
born at Belchertown, Hampshire county, Mass., Jan. 8, 1804, growing up
on a farm, which he left when eighteen years of age to learn the
carpenter's trade. In 1833 he came to Chicago, where he found
employment as a builder, remaining there until he came to Milwaukee, in
1835. Here he was engaged for many years as a master builder, and took
a lively interest in everything pertaining to the upbuilding of the
city up to the time of his death, which occurred on Sept. 22, 1874. As
a public man he rendered valuable services to the city as a member of
the state legislature and city council, and as a member of the board of
directors of the Milwaukee & La Crosse railway he was an active
promoter of that pioneer railway enterprise.
