The time and place of birth of James Brown are not known. He settled early in Newport. Married Elizabeth Carr, dau. of Robert Carr. He was a cooper by trade. Admitted Freeman in 1G71. On Dec. 31. 1672, he and his wife Elizabeth sold the home of his father, Chad Brown, deceased, to Daniel Abbott, of Providence, excepting the land where his father, Chad, and mother, Elizabeth, were buried. In 1679 bought of Daniel Stanton, of Newport, land in Coeset for forty shillings. In 1680 was taxed 12 . He died about 1683, as on May 5th of that year it is recorded that Elizabeth Brown, ot Newport, widow and executrix of James Brown, sold land in East Greenwich to Clement Weaver for £12.
