Brown, which occurred at 2:30 o'clock Saturday morning of heart trouble, one of the older and leading practitioners of medicine in Newark passed to his long rest. For a third of a century Dr. Brown has practiced medicine in Newark and Licking county and has always been one of the leaders of his profession, successful in his practice and in demand among his brethren in consultation when a complicated case was met in their practice. Endymion S. Brown was born in Perryton, Licking county, November 13, 1840. His preliminary education was acquired in the district schools. In 1859 he was a student at the W. Carlisle acadamy and the following year he entered the Granville college. After completing his studies in that institution he commenced the study of medicine and in 1869 he graduated from the Cleveland Medical college. That same year he located at Pataskala, but only remained there for two years as on April 1, 1871, he came to Newark, where he began practicing and has since resided in this city. Dr. Brown was one of a family of three children that grew to maturity, Endymion S., Mary Frances (Parnell) and Lucy Ellen (Fleming), the sisters being residents of Newark. The Brown family is of English extraction, Grandfather Brown having emigrated to this country from England. The Doctor's father was born in Virginia, while his mother (Rebecca Hinton) was a native of Newark, Ohio, her parents coming hither from New Jersey and Pennsylvania and her grandparents having emigrated from Scotland and England. Archibald Wilson Brown and his wife were members of the Methodist Episcopal church for more than a half century, and in looking back over the family history we find the representatives the loftiest principals of honor applied to the discharge of important official functions which heritage had its full fruition in the life and work of Dr. E. S. Brown. March 12, 1904 Unknown Licking County newspaper
