The son of James and Sophia (Williams) Brown, Levi was a blacksmith by trade.

He first married Sarah M. Neal in Crawford County, on 01 Jul 1866. She was the mother of all his known children.

Two years after her death, he married the widow Mary J. Brewster (nee Williams), in Crawford County.

His death certificate lists the primary cause of his death as organic heart disease, and indigestion as a contributing factor.

His second wife died of the same condition on 21 Jan 1926, in Crawford County's Johnson township.

Levi H. Brown, a citizen of English for several years, succumbed to acute indigestion after two days’ illness. His death occurred at his home here at four o’clock Saturday afternoon. He was seventy-seven years old and a veteran of the civil war, serving for three years with Company D, 23rd Regiment, Indiana Volunteers, and was wounded once.

He is survived by his widow; [and daughters,] Mrs. Edna Brown of Kansas; Mrs. F. A. Scott, of Waterloo, Ia., and another who lives at Indiana Harbor; and one son, George Brown, of Leavenworth.

The funeral was held Monday afternoon and burial was in the cemetery at Tower. The deceased had been a member of the Masonic fraternity for fifty-one years and the burial service of that order was held at the grave, Crawford Lodge No. 470, of English, being in charge. --The Crawford County Democrat (English, Indiana); Thursday, 11 May 1922; pg. 1, col. 6
