Biographical data
Name: Brown, Frederick  
Born: 1866
Died: 9 Feb. 1933
 
Notes:
Hilbert, citing Kenneth Whyld, says that Brown was 67 at his death on 9-02-1933, which would suggest that he was born in 1865 or early 1866. Tim Harding has sent me information from the 1871 census and from his probable birth records indicating that he was born in the third quarter of 1866 in King's Norton, Worcestershire.
