About Annie Brown
Annie Brown was the 15th child of abolitionist John Brown. Her mother, Mary Ann Day, was Brown's second wife. Annie Brown was vital to her father's plans in preparations for his raid on Harpers Ferry, Virginia in 1859. She was a part of Brown's cover story while he, some of his family, and members of the "Provisional Army" were all living at the Kennedy Farm in Maryland. She married Samuel Sylvester Adams in 1869 and lived a private life in California until her death in 1926. They had five daughters: Vivian, Bertha, Lolita, Grace, and Sarah; and three sons: John, Samuel, and Landon.
