DANIEL A. BROWN
According to census record of Butman Township, Gladwin County, Michigan in 1900, Daniel A. Brown was born in August of 1846 in Ohio. About 1870 he married Martha Jane Mansfield. To them were born 10 children with nine living in 1900 although I can only find the names of eight, sons Frank and Andrew, daughters Tillie, Mary, Annie, twins Lillie and Lottie, and Clara. Some of the children were born in Paulding County, Ohio while some were born in Indiana.
The family moved to Michigan in 1891 or 1892, settling in Butman Township. On April 19, 1907, he lost his wife to TB. The story I have been told is that sometime around 1911 he left on foot to visit one of his daughters somewhere north of St. Helen and disappeared and was never seen again. There is no obituary and no body was ever found.
