Reported age at time of death was 45 years, so if accurate, evidently born about 1812.
Mary Jane Galer's "COLUMBUS, GA: Lists of People, 1828-1852, and Sexton's Reports to 1866" (2000), p. 215, shows: Abraham BROWN died aged 45 years of asthma and was buried 20 MAY 1858 (from "April to July 1858, Sexton's Report of deaths [sic - this is a report of burials in the municipal cemeteries]," dated 06 JUL 1858. Thomas NIX was the sexton at that time.). John H. Martin's "The Making of a Modern City: Columbus, Georgia, 1827-65," Volume II (1875), p. 109 (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.
