"Carlton Brown died at his home in Schenevus the 29th day of June, 1904, and was one of the older people of the town of Maryland who connects the present with the past. Mr. Brown was born in the town of Maryland January 4th, 1827 and had lived here during the whole of his life. His life had been very active until within a few years when on account of failing health he had to retire. He was a man of much more than average ability, always well informed upon all subjects pertaining to his immediate locality as well as to the affairs of the state and nation. In early years Mr. Brown was a merchant farmer and also engaged in a tanning industry. During the war of the Rebellion he was a deputy collector of Internal Revenue and at one time Deputy United States marshall. He was also at one time supervisor of the town of Maryland, and held other positions of trust, and was in every position in life efficient, active and a leader among men. The funeral was held at his late home on Friday at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and the burial was in the Schenevus cemetery." [The Otsego Farmer (Cooperstown, NY), July 8, 1904, p. 4]
