J. C. BROWN.—Mr. Brown was born in Hardin county, Kentucky, June 11, 1855. His
parents came across the plains in 1861, settling at Virginia City, Nevada, where
they remained a year and a half, when they removed to Sonoma bounty, California,
and lived on a farm until 1874. At that time they sold out and came to Sierra
county, purchasing the Lee ranch of 160 acres, two miles west of Loyalton. Our
subject's father, J. B. Brown, died November 17, 1876; his mother, now sixty-one
years old, lives on the farm with her son, J. C. Brown, and her daughters Maud
and Rosa. Her son Alexander is married and lives in Los Angeles ; while Marcus
D. is a resident of Washington Territory. Her daughter Emily was married to
William Hand, in 1865, and now lives in Chico. J. C. Brown has managed the farm
since his father's death. In politics he is democratic.
