• Notes

  Charley Talley Brown supported himself and his second family by selling chairs and other furniture that he made from the trees found on his homestead. He made his own tools to work the wood pieces. He would soak the wood in water to facilitate bending. He sold these chairs at Frank Bailes and Oscar Ellis' store on Big Coon and Little Coon Creek in the valley near the Tennessee River in the 1920's. The chair making was done at his homestead on Cumberland Mountain near Hytop, Alabama in Jackson Co.,. The wood selected for the chairs was hickory and white oak. He was a blacksmith and had his own forge. He made his own turning lathe and tools. The lathe was powered by a treadle and the boys were the movers on the treadle. _______________________________________________________________________________ Record of Patent # 937887 Montgomery #010511 United States of America Whereas, a Certificate of Register of the Land Office at Montgomery, AL has been deposited in the General Land Office, whereby it appears that, pursuant to the Act of Congress of May 20, 1862, " To Secure Homesteads to Actual Settlers on the Public Domain, " and the acts supplemental thereto, the claim of Charles T. Brown has been established and duly consummated, in conformity to law, for the northwet quarter of the southwest quarter of Section twenty-six in Township one south of range five east of the Huntsville Meridian, Alabama, containing forty acres and eighteen hundredths of an acre. dated eight day of May 1924 ( Calvin Coolidge ) _____________________________________________________________________________ Rose Pippin website notation ( http://rosepipping.com) AKA Daddy Brown Supposedly registered as a Cherokee/Choctaw 9/1/06: Letter from Ruby Brown with additional photo of Charley T Brown. This is not a very good picture of Mr. Brown. My husband Chelsey said one of his boys came from Texas and took him there. That was where the picture was taken. " Elbert"? possibly Texas instead of Arkansas. Review with Bob Brown.
