Hugh B. Brown
Hugh Brown Brown〔The maiden name of Brown's mother was "Brown". Brown was given his mother's maiden name as his second given name.〕 (October 24, 1883 – December 2, 1975) was an attorney, educator, author and leader in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). He was a member of the church's Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and First Presidency. Born in Utah, Brown held both American and Canadian citizenship.
Brown was a talented speaker, and was well known for conveying religious principles and exhortations through accounts of events in his life. His grandson, Edwin B. Firmage, noted:〔Edwin Brown Firmage, ("Elder Hugh B. Brown, 1883–1975: In Memoriam" ), ''Ensign'', January 1976, p. 86.〕 "Possessed at once with a sense of humor that refused him permission to take himself too seriously, and a profound spirituality based on true humility before God, he moved thousands with a style of classic oratory that will be sorely missed."
==Early life==
Brown was born in Granger, Utah Territory, to Homer Manley Brown and Lydia Jane Brown. He later recorded the event of his birth: "It is alleged that I was born in Granger, Utah, in 1883, on the 24th of October. I was there but do not remember the event. However, my mother was an honest woman and I must take her word."〔 His father had a small farm and orchard. When Brown was fourteen, Homer Brown left Utah with his oldest son to establish a farm in Spring Coulee, in western Canada. Brown was the oldest son left in Salt Lake City, and he and his sister Lillie, eighteen months his senior, took care of the farm and orchard until their father sent for the family.
Brown was fifteen when his family moved to southern Alberta, which was then part of the Northwest Territories. Shortly after his eighteenth birthday, he traveled to Logan, Utah, to attend Brigham Young College. Brown also attended Utah State Agricultural College. Dr. John A. Widtsoe suggested a career in agriculture for Brown. After a brief period at the college, Brown was called to England as a missionary for the LDS Church, serving under Heber J. Grant from 1904 to 1906. Upon his return, Brown married Zina Young Card, a childhood friend whom he married in 1908. They settled in Alberta and the first six of the couple's eight children were born there.
