He was a chief master sgt. in WWI at Ft. Moultrie, Charleston, SC. Within the Brown family, his nickname was "Dude". He and Harriet had no children.

There are two Kolb Family group photos with identifications (click on each photo to see the caption info) of family members on his mother's (Alice Irene) memorial, HERE.

"Bob" R. T. Brown, III (July 2017): "My dad said that Dude married late in life and that his wife Harriet was a very attractive woman. He also told me that she is still living and is in the nursing home that was once the old Charleston Hotel on the Battery. We already know that Dude drank a lot and dad said that he "went missing" for many years. My mom said that Dude was a really funny guy, a comedian, but that he was very moody. Sometimes he would come to visit and would entertain and would be very jolly. She said that other times he would visit and just sit and hardly say a word. I think these little facts about personalities are very interesting. They capture the spirit of the person rather than just facts about them."

He was a chief master sgt. in WWI & stationed at Ft. Moultrie on Sullivan's Island, SC; they had no children. He is buried at cem. of the Christ Church Parish Episcopal Church (incorporated 1706 & founding building in 1707 by South Carolina church act of 1706, & also known as 3rd church of the St. James-Santee Parish Church); church cemetery is located north of Mt. Pleasant, S. C. on the east side of highway #17 north (historically variously referred to as The King's Highway or The Old Georgetown Road).
