Biographical notes:

Milton Brown was a member of the original Light Crust Doughboys band in Fort Worth founded by W. Lee O'Daniel and Bob Wills. Later, Brown started his own musical group called the Brownies, but on April 18, 1936 he died of pneumonia from injuries he received five days earlier in a car wreck near Jacksboro. His brother Durwood then took over the Brownies, ranked as one of the nation's top fiddle bands.
