Willcox Brown in Baltimore Days A • • • 1rg1n1a ~ eritage by Eleanor Brown Merrill PRIVATELY PRINTED 1968 Library of Congress Card Catalog Number 68-54707 Press of Whittet & Shepperson, Richmond, Virginia DEDICATION ~ To the memory of my brother DONALDSON BROWN A True Virginian V FOREWORD HIS CHRONICLE of our forebears is addressed to my nieces and nephews, who have shown interest in learning something about their antecedents. Many facts have been unearthed by George H. S. King, Fellow of the American Society of Genealogists, and I have read a vast amount of reference material relating not only to the persons but, also, to the times involved. As Maud Wilder Goodwin writes in her preface to White Aprons: "The obscurity which veils the entire history of the great struggle between tyranny and popular rights in Virginia a hundred years before the Revolution makes accuracy impos­ sible even for the most painstaking historian." And later depre­ dations and loss of records have further shrouded the image of past years. It must be admitted that some embroidery has been used in an effort to make interesting reading. But the data as given are essentially correct, and the genealogical tables given present accurate data. This work ceases with the generation preceding my own; it is hoped that you younger ones will be stimulated to carry the record further through a period that has shown many up­ heavals and an increasing horde of relatives. E. B. M. Vll ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ~ IRST THE WRITER wants to record deep appre­ ciation of the Donaldson Brown family's constant encourage­ ment and support of this study, without which it could not have been carried through.

PREFACE. IHIS volume is not a biography, the materials for which do not exist. But few family records of my grandfather’s early life have come down to us. The first twenty years of his life are a mere outline. I never heard him revert to his early years. When I first remember him, he had “so far left the coast of life” behind, “to travel inland,” that its mur- mur may have grown indistinct. Grandmother was more chatty. My grandfather was ever a man of action; he lived in the present. Only a few of his letters are extant, and these relate to the latter period of his life. The old people wrote but seldom, and were careless in preserving their cor- respondence. During the Civil War many valuable family letters were lost, and those confided to a friend never accounted for.
