Personal
Died-Mrs. Mary E. Brown, wife of John Brown Sr., died in Eugene Wednesday morning, Dec, 25th, 1889. of failure of the heart. The decease was born in Kentucky, April 26, 1820; remove with her parents to Missouri in 1833; was married to John Brown in 1835. With her husband she came to Oregon in 1852 and located in Lane county, where she resided until the time of her death. esteemed and respected by all with whom she came in contact. She bequeaths the example of a noble life as a legacy to the ones left behind. Four daughters, and two sons, and her aged husband survive her. The funeral look place Thursday to the Mulkey Cemetery.
Speculation, there is a chance that Mary Eleanor Brown is buried in the Eugene Pioneer Cemetery, in same plot as her son John D. Brown and his wife, rather than Mulkey Cemetery.
