Washington county traces the rise of Charles Reynolds Brown a Yale Divinity School dean and renowned preacher. Born near Bethany West Virginia he grew up on Maple Lane Iowa but made his mark nationally through leadership in Oakland California at the First Congregational Church and later at Yale University.
