Adelaide's parents sold their farm near Philomath before 1876 and likely moved into the small town that would, in 1882, become a full fledged city with Mayor, Recorder, Marshall, Treasurer and six Aldermen. The recorder being Julius Brownson, her loving father. He also was reported to be a town lawyer and held the office of Justice of the Peace. As a member of the United Brethren Church of Philomath, he was the Conference Secretary and as such helped to direct the work of it's body.
In about 1882, Mary and Julius Brownson, decided to purchase farm property in Lincoln County of Eastern Washington State and began a new chapter in their lives. There is one record found in the, 1889 Washington State Census Report, now in the hands of Washington State Archives, Digital Records Department. It is presumed that Julius died while attending to this task and as yet no burial record has been found. He would have been considered a pioneer to this remote area of Washington.
