    Notes:
    THE BROWN GENEALOGY, Boston, The Everett Press Company 1907, by CyrusHenry Brown, page 14, 30.
    Elder Brown was the first pastor of the Second Baptist Church, No.Stonington, for fifty years and eight months.

    SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH OF NO. STONINGTON, NEW LONDON, CT.
    The Second Baptist Church of No. Stonington, CT was organized inMarch, 1765, with Elder Simeon Brown as pastor. Elder Brown was born inStonington Jan. 31, 1723, a man of strong native talents; he wasconverted under the preaching of Whitefield, in 1745. He united with Rev.Stephen Babcock in forming the Baptist Church in Westerly, RI in 1750;and was baptized by Rev. Wait Palmer in 17--, being ordained the sameyear. His pastorate and watchfull care over this church extended from theorganization, in 1765, until his death in 1815 - fifty years and eightmonths, a nobel record to be engraved on his monument in Brown Cementeryin his native town.
    His descendants may well be proud of the character and theconsecrated life of so novle a man, laying down the burdens of life inhis ninety-fourth year. The self-sacrificing labors and the toweringgrandeur of his character and the wide-spread and abounding influencewith emanated from his peretuate his memory through many generations,leaving a shining record.
    The handful of corn on the tops of the mountains grew til now themembership was three hundred and thirty-five. He served this church allthese years without salary, and built the meeting-house from lumber cutfrom his "cedar swamp," with the assistance of his brethren.
    It was without paint, both interior and exterior; with galleries onthree sides, a high pulpit on the north side, with an ascent of tenstairs, enclosed with panel work. When the minister was seated he couldnot be seen by the audience. He stood on a small platform, and was acommanding figure. The writer was present when the last service was heldin this old meeting-house, in the spring of 1845; it was like partingwith one's dearest friend, and many tears were shed. It was suggestedthat they better let it stand, but it was taken down and the presenthouse erected the same year.
    The ceiling of the porch of the new house was the panelling takenfrom the pews of the old house.
    The following items of interest by way of comparison are gleanedfrom the Stonington Baptist Association, as it was first called in thefirst printed minutes, which embraced churches in Rhode Island as fareast as Exeter and Wickford and west to Waterford and Montville, CT.
    Stonington Baptist Association held at Elder Timothy Wightman's Meetinghouse in 1792 Groton.
