Santa Cruz Sentinel - April 4, 1919
Captain Brown No More
From Mrs. O.A. Longley, related to the deceased by marriage, we learn of the death, last Saturday, at Yountville of Capt. Albert Brown, his remains now reposing in the home of the soldiers there. The departed must have almost reached the age of four score and ten before the final taps were sounded, for he was in charge of the Davis and Jordan lime business at the Santa Crux beach as far back as 1860. When the rebellion broke out in 1861, he organized an infantry [Cavalry] company, and as its Captain headed till the conclusion of peace, being stationed along the Mexican [Utah] front. Peace concluded he returned to this city, serving this county as clerk from 1870 to 1874 inclusive, after which time he filled a clerical position in the freight office of the S.P. Co., in the San Francisco office. From there he moved to Yountville, and for many years was its postmaster.
The immediate relatives of the absent one are two sons, Albert and Aaron, who are in business in Berkeley.
