Biography

Birth1836Elizabeth Gill was born in 1836 in Indiana.1
Marriage18 January 1863Peleg Brown and she were married on 18 January 1863 in Washoe County, Nevada,1,2
Newspaper Mention3 October 1878The 3 October 1878 edition of the Nevada State Journal, Reno, Washoe County, Nevada, reported ADMINISTRATRIX: In the District Court yesterday Mrs. Elizabeth Brown was appointed administratrix upon the estate of Peleg Brown, deceased, with bonds in the sum of $11,000. John Wright, B.G. Clow, A.H. Manning and E. Crane were her bondsmen.3
Census24 June 1880She appeared in the census 24 June 1880 in Huffakers, Washoe County, Nevada. Elizabeth is listed as: Farmer, b. Indiana, Father born Penn, mother b. Tenn., age 45, widowed, with Albert G, 15, Laura E, 12, Chas. P., 8, and Nelley, 3. Three older children attending school. Listed in Dwelling 488, Family 493, which starts with B.H. Clow and family, and 8 laborers, and two cooks, and those are all marked Employee under "Relationship to Head". Elizabeth's record is blank under Relationship, and her occupation is listed as Farmer, not Laborer.4
Newspaper Mention4 March 1882The 4 March 1882 edition of the Weekly Nevada State Journal, Reno, Washoe, Nevada, reported Ervine Crane and M.C. Lake have been appointed guardians of the person and estate of Mrs. Peleg Brown, and have been requested by Judge King to give a bond in the sum of $6,700.5
Newspaper Mention11 March 1882The 11 March 1882 edition of the Weekly Nevada State Journal, Reno, Washoe, Nevada, reported In "Brevities", a column of a sentence about this and a sentence about that, "E. Crane took Mrs. Peleg Brown below last night. She was quite violent while being taken into the car."
Newspaper Mention18 March 1882The 18 March 1882 edition of the Weekly Nevada State Journal, Reno, Washoe County, Nevada, reported "This is the way the Sacramento Record-Union mixes it: An insane woman named Mrs. Elizabeth Brown, of Brown's Station, Nev., passed through yesterday, on her way to the asylum at Stockton. She was in charge of P. Brown and Irvin Crane, the former her husband and the latter her son-in-law. She was so violent that she had to be confined with straps, and in her ravings says that her mission on earth is to harmonize the Irish and Chinese." Since Peleg was already dead at this time, that is probably the reason for the comment "mixes it". Ervin Crane may well have taken her to CA.6
Newspaper Mention29 April 1882The 29 April 1882 edition of the Weekly Nevada State Journal, Reno, Washoe, Nevada, reported B. G. Clow, John Wright and A.M. Lamb, have applied to be released as sureties upon the bond of Elizabeth Brown, guardian of the minor heirs of Peleg Brown. Judge King will hear the application on May 8th.
Newspaper Mention3 March 1883The 3 March 1883 edition of the Weekly Nevada State Journal, Reno, Washoe, Nevada, reported Page 4: The Journal understands that Dr. Clark, of Stockton, still retains insane patients committed from Nevada, and that at the time the transfer was made to the State he only turned over the indigent patients, retaining all of the paying patients, among whom are Mrs. Peleg Brown, of this county, and a Mrs. Battles, of Storey. The commissioners should take immediate steps to see that these patients are delivered to Nevada. How they overlooked it in the first place is difficult for the Journal to understand.

Page 3: Home Again: Mrs. Peleg Brown returned to her home last Saturday, having been discharged from Dr. Clark's Asylum at Stockton. So the Journal yesterday morning was wrong in still believing her an inmate. Glad to know her reason has resumed its sway.7
Newspaper Mention15 March 1884The 15 March 1884 edition of the Weekly Nevada State Journal, Reno, Washoe County, Nevada, reported RESTORED TO HER ESTATE: Mrs. Elizabeth Brown, widow of the late Peleg Brown, who for a time was bereft of reason and sent to an Asylum for the Insane in California, and in the meantime had her property managed by E. Crane, who was appointed for that purpose, appeared in Court yesterday and asked to have the management of her property restored, and the guardian discharged. Upon the testimony of Mr. Crane and the son of Mrs. Brown to the effect that the lady is of sound mind and fully competent to manage her own affairs the Court granted the order dismissing the guardian and restoring the property to the care and custody of Mrs. Brown.8

Obituary25 January 191825 January 1918, Reno, Washoe, Nevada, Reno Evening Gazette Obituary:. PIONEER RESIDENT OF COUNTY PASSES AWAY:

Mrs. Elizabeth Brown's Death Mourned by Many; Came Across the Plains: The death of Mrs. Elizabeth Brown, Pioneer Washoe county resident, is today being mourned by her many friends and relatives living in this vicinity. Mrs. Brown died Wednesday evening, nearly 83 years of age, at a Reno hospital, leaving a large number of relatives to mourn her demise. Death was due to natural causes.

Crossed the Plains: Mrs. Brown had lived in Washoe county more than 56 years, having crossed the plains in 1861. She was among the last of the pioneers in this state who braved the dangers and rigors of the plains to make the perilous journey. Her passing away is of historical interest, not only to the county but to the entire state. She was one of those few who helped pave the way for the establishment of civilization in the west.

Settles at Springs: On her arrival here, after making the journey from Fort Wayne in her native state, Indiana, in company with her sister, brother-in-law and other relatives, she settled in the vicinity of Steamboat springs, where she lived with an uncle.

Married Peleg Brown: On January 20, 1863, she married Peleg Brown, who had come from Boise City, Idaho. She lived with her husband on the Brown ranch until his death in 1878.

Mrs. Brown, for the last few years, had taken a keen interest, despite her age, in all the topics of the day. She would often tell of her experiences here and the times of 1860-70 in this county.

Funeral arrangements, which are in the hands of Perkins & Gulling, undertakers, have not yet been completed. The date of her funeral is expected to be announced today. Mrs. Brown was the mother of A.G. Brown, Susan E. Brown, Mrs. Jas. Wheeler, Santa Cruz, Cal., and the late Prof. Charles P. Brown. Twelve of her grand children are still living.25 Jan 191810
Burial26 January 1918She was buried on 26 January 1918 at Hillside Cemetery in Reno, Washoe County, Nevada. FUNERAL OF PIONEER RESIDENT HELD TODAY: The funeral of Mrs. Elizabeth Brown, 82, pioneer Washoe county woman, who died Wednesday eveing, will be held from the chapel of the Perkins-Gulling company at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Rev. Brewster Adams will officiate at the services and deliver the eulogy. Interment will be at Hillside cemetery. The deceased had lived in Washoe county for more than 50 years. She crossed the plains in 1861 from Fort Wayne in her native state of Indiana. She is survived by a host of friends and relatives.11

His father, Peleg Brown, left Rhode Island and came West in 1856, purchasing cattle in Kentucky and driving them west. He settled in Washoe Valley the following year.

In addition to farming, they ran a pony express and change station during the boom days of the Comstock. After his father's death, young Brown took up the active management of his mother's property, and continued in that capacity until his mother's death.

For several years he then operated the estate for the heirs, then disposed of his interests and moved to Reno so his children could attend the Reno schools and the university.
