The "Salisbury Advertiser" of Jun 1 1872 states that, "On the morning of the 28th inst. at Zion, the wife of Marcellus Brown died from cancer of the breast. Her sufferings within the past few weeks were intense, yet the resignation at the hour of death was calm and unwavering, and she passed gently away from a world of suffering to a more blissful life beyond the grave." Thus, she is shown to have attended Zion Church which was located on Meadow Bridge Road (on the Worcester County side), about one mile south of its intersection with McGrath Road. She is buried in the Brown cemetery just north and east of the intersection with those two roads.
