Hi

I am the great-great -granddaughter of Hugh Brown's brother David Brown. I came across this anecdote about the two brothers on Ancestry.com:

‘A story in Pen Portraits (a collection of reminiscences compiled by the Woodbine Woman's Club in 1969) on page 44.

"The only source possibly confirming that HUGH BROWN JR. had at least one brother, DAVID BROWN, is in "Pen Portraits" p. 44, placed under the section written by Maddie Brown Clark entitled "A Romance In Camden County," a narrative by Mrs. G. V. Baker of White Oak, GA, as told to her by an elderly gentleman who was a former slave: "Over a hundred years ago, there lived in Camden County two brothers, David and Hugh Brown ... David was engaged to Miss Deen [sic] and Hugh to a Miss Atkinson. Miss Deen went away on a little visit and David was to go for her and bring her home. Something prevented and he could not go, so he asked Hugh to go. He gladly consented. The miles were long and horses were slow in the horse and buggy days, so there was much courting done ... Hugh fell desperately in love with Miss Deen, his brother's sweetheart. Arriving at home, he told what happened. David said, 'We will exchange, if it will be all right with Miss Atkinson.' Seeing her, the exchange was made. Hugh would marry Miss Deen, David, Miss Atkinson."

(Note by EBS: Hugh Brown married Elizabeth Dean, and David Brown married Elizabeth Atkinson)
