Author Biographical Info

Arthur Gramson Boss Brown was born in Bosworth, Missouri, on February 10, 1873. He graduated from Simms Medical College in St. Louis in 1902 and moved to Dean Lake, Missouri, in 1903 but returned to Bosworth later that year and spent the rest of his life there. He retired due to failing health and sold his practice in 1948. Dr. Brown and his wife Clemma were killed when their car struck a bridge in Carrollton, Missouri, in February 1959 and are buried in Elizabeth Cemetery, south of Hale, Missouri. Most of the family seems to have stayed in Missouri but their son Dr. Wilson Gordon Brown (18 January 1914- 23 December 1990, buried at Elizabeth Cemetery) lived in Houston, which is probably why the Library has the bag. Dr. Brown’s brother William Gordon Brown (1865-1931) was also a doctor in Carroll County. See more at Brown, A. G. Boss.
