Copy of a portrait of Orus Brown, the son of Reverend Clark and Tabitha Brown, in his Sunday best. He came to Oregon between 1843 and 1846 and settled in Washington County. This photograph was most likely taken in the 1860s or 1870s. Text on back: "Orus Brown 1800-1874 (in his Sunday best) / Original held by Mrs. Ernestine Davidson. Copy provided by Craig A.

Color copy of a portrait of Reverend Clark Brown, the husband of pioneer and co-founder of Pacific University Tabitha Brown. He lived from 1771 to 1817.
Copy of a portrait of Tabitha Moffatt Brown (1780-1858). She is known for her account of crossing the Oregon Trail in 1846 at age 66. She founded a school for orphans in Forest Grove, Oregon, which later grew into Pacific University. This portrait, which is the only known image of Tabitha Brown, has been reproduced many times. This particular copy is an 20th century reproduction, probably dating from the 1920s-1950, and is rather distorted: it is probably a copy of a copy. The original portrait from which it derives was created before Tabitha Brown's death in 1858, most likely between 1853-1858, based on the availability of portrait photography in Oregon at that time.
