History

Edgar I. Brown, born in 1854, came here with his wife, Alice, and son, Charles, to homestead in the Badlands when he was 55. Their first and only home was a side hill, sod wall, dirt roofed house, and around it they built a humble homestead. Intact today, it remains a classic example of the frugal but satisfactory life of the men who built the West and should interest every American.
