Elisha Brown

Elisha Brown was a deputy governor of the Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations. He was the son of James and Mary Brown, and the great grandson of early Rhode Island settler and Baptist minister Chad Brown. Brown was a member of the General Assembly, and possessed a large property, which was lost during the financial difficulties of the mid18th century. During the WardHopkins controversy, he sided with Samuel Ward, and during Wards term as governor from 1765 to 1767, Brown was selected as his deputy governor.
