Bennett lib@dogsbark.comMarch 3, 2006, 7:16 pm THE SEBEWA RECOLLECTOR – Bulletin of the Sebewa Center Association; Volume 28, October 1992, Number 2: BROWN, SYDNEY J., 91, son of John & Annie Pierce Brown, widower of Mildred (Evans) Brown, father of Gladys Brown Spitzley. He was born in Cornwall, England, came to this country as a young man, farmed, operated S. J. Brown Livestock Trucking and retired as manager of Michigan Livestock Exchange in Portland. This family ties into the Evans Family History (Volume 24 – No. 1, 2, 3, 5) and the Spitzley Family History (Volume 27 – No. 4). Gladys married William Joseph Spitzley, son of William Mathias (Hardware Bill) Spitzley. Their son William Jr. is at least William the Fifth. One of the pallbearers is their daughter, Patricia Spitzley. We encourage this trend, and plan to have all women pallbearers. Third child is Elizabeth Spitzley Hart.
