Edmond BROWN born 00-00-1815 Greenville Co SC. Edmond died 01-04-1852,
Edgefield SC. Edmond "Edmund" Brown was shot and killed "by mistake" on a
trip made in covered wagons to Edgefield. A man, apparently drunk, was "out
to get" a man driving another wagon, and shot Edmond. Leonard Lawrence, son
of Edmond, drove the wagon back to Edgefield with his father's body. 

Source of the above info: "William Brown Sr Family and Some of His
Descendants", authored by Carl Alton Brown and Louise Brown Heffner.
Library of Congress: TXU 608-599.

I am interested in finding out if there is a newspaper story re: the above,
what the name of the local paper for the Edgefield and/or Greenville areas
was, if there was one, and if there is an archive source for such papers.

Any help would be appreciated.
