Biography*		History of Owen County by Blanchard, page 929, "David Brown, pioneer farmer and stock-grower, fourth son of William and Elizabeth Brown, natives of North Carolina, was born in Burke County, that State, December 1, 1803, and came to Indiana in the year 1826. For nine years he lived in Lawrence County, and from the wilderness there wrought and improved a farm. Coming thence into Owen County in the year 1835 or 1836, he entered the land upon which he has since resided. In the spring of 1827, he was married, in Lawrence County, to Sarah Litton, who died October 29, 1874, at the age of seventy years. The children she bore were William R. (deceased), Thomas G., John Wesley, Eliza, Charles (deceased), Francis M., David A., Polly Ann, Laura (deceased), Elihu C., and an infant (deceased) not named. Mr. B. has been a member of the Baptist Church since 1868. He was reared upon a farm, and received but little schooling. What of the world's goods he has, he has acquired by the sweat of his brow. When he came to Owen County the country was new. His nearest post office was eleven miles away, and the price of a postage stamp was a quarter. The settlement was so sparse that it required the united effort of the men in a radius of five miles to raise a common log cabin. The grists were ground by horse-power; the roads were indicated by the blazes on the trees; the fields were but patches; the schools were in some other man's neighborhood, and the minister preached --if at all-- without pay. Our subject is grandfather to sixty-four children, and great grandfather to seven. He owns a fine farm of 260 acres, of which 200 acres are in cultivation, and receives much of his personal supervision." Notebook on the Brown Family also lists him as a son of William and Elizabeth. He is listed as the fourth child. His wife's name is given as Sally Allen. The children's names in this source are: Rufus, Thomas, John Wesley, Charles, Marion, Columbus, Anderson, Eliza, Laura, a girl Dora?      "State of North Carolina, Burke County.

[S693] Oliva signed as John Brown's spouse on the deed on the division of John's father Wm Brown's land in Owen Co, IN. This was signed in Fayette IL in 1846. John remarried in 1849, so this places Oliva's death between 1846 and 1849.
