Reported age at time of death was 23 years, so if accurate, evidently born about 1833.
Mary Jane Galer's "COLUMBUS, GA: Lists of People, 1828-1852, and Sexton's Reports to 1866" (2000), p. 209, shows: Mrs. BROWN died aged 23 years of typhoid fever and was buried 06 MAR 1857 (from "January 1 to April 1, 1857, Sexton report," dated 13 APR 1857. The sexton at that time was Thomas NIX). John H. Martin's "History of Columbus," Part 2 (1875), p. 100 (from a version of the sexton's report published in the local newspaper), confirms the record.
This grave is evidently not identifiably marked. Based on the burial date, it would be in either the Old Cemetery section, Section 1, or Section 2, unless it was subsequently moved, as the balance of the Linwood Cemetery area had not yet been opened up for burials.
