BROWN family headstones at the Port Austin Township Cemetery, Port Austin,
Michigan. Photos taken July 27, 2002. If you need high quality 1600x1200 images, just drop me a line and I will send them to you. |
Enter the cemetery at the center drive, to the right of the sign shown above. Approximately 50 feet into the cemetery, look to your left (westward) and you will see a low spot that looks like this photo. Here is where the majority of the Brown family members are. Starting at the left is Semantha Joles, Nancy E. Brown, Nancy Brown, David Brown. The large fallen stone to the far right is Ira Brown.
Very difficult to see, but these are the head and footstones of Ira Brown.
Farewell Semantha, wife of Levi Joles. Died Aug. 25, 1877.
Nancy E., dau of G. & E. Brown. Does Dec. 8, 1882 ages 1 years.
Nancy is the daughter of George Henry Brown and Emma May Bowen Brown, my 2nd Great Grandparents.
Nancy, wife of David Brown. Died January 20, 1885, aged 74 years, 11 months.
Nancy Peterson Brown is my 3rd Great Grandmother.
In Memory of David Brown, Born May 1, 1811: Died Aug 9, 1893.
David is the husband of Nancy (above) and is my 3rd Great Grandfather.
To the right (south) of the above plots is this one - Sarah Janes Brown, died Dec. 8, 1896 aged 34 years 5 months. It is unknown if she is related to the above Browns.
Although it is hard to see, this undated stone says "Rosie M. Brown". It is made of concrete and appears to be hand made. It is located at the far rear (north) center of the cemetery, near the woods.
It is quite close to this stone, Robert Brown 1872-1953 Rosie M. Brown 1878-1940. I do not know if these folks are related to me either.
