This history may be considered accidental or of a spontaneous character. On one occasion Rev. N. D. Body and the writer were in conver sation relative to the Old Stone House. The former suggested that the Browns should keep the house in their possession as a sacred relic. Out of this interview grew the idea of organizing a Michael Brown Family Association which later was effected, having as its main object the bring ing together annually the descendants of Michael Brown and their friends in a social way, caring for the old family graveyard and if possible purchasing the Old Stone House which had by this time passed into the hands of those outside of the Brown family.
