Contemporary of J. Parker Whitney. Large landowner (Clover Valley). Otis T. Brown is found in the census records as early as 1860 living in the Rocklin area. He had a brother Sidney. In 1900 U.S. Census (Placer County, CA) he was listed as single and having been born in New York.
Raisins from Placer County.
We have had placed upon our table to-day a box containing 10 or 12 pounds of as fine and perfect raisins as we ever saw of California growth; or in fact of any growth. Large bunches of well-cared and well-flavored raisins — such raisins as would sell in any market as quickly as any of foreign growth. These were grown by Mr. Otis Brown, on his ranch in the foot-hills in Placer county, some 20 miles above Sacramento, about two miles northwest of Rocklin.
