Name and history
It is one of eight Brown Townships statewide.[4]
This township was named for John Brown, who then resided at Pekin, and who built the first mill in that part of Carroll County. Brown Township was made an independent township in 1815 while a part of Stark County. [5] With the formation of Carroll County in 1833, two miles off the east side of Sandy Township were annexed to the west side of Brown Township, creating an eight mile wide township.[6]
