MARGARET DALY BROWN
Margaret Augusta Daly was born in Ophir, Utah to Margaret Price Daly and Marcus Daly, the legendary Montana "Copper King". An Irish immigrant, Mr. Daly gathered his meager finances and in 1861 booked passage via Panama to the West Coast where he found employment in a variety of mining concerns in California, Nevada, Utah and finally, Montana. In 1881, Mr. Daly purchased the Anaconda claim near Butte, Montana, and made a fortune when copper was discovered.
One of four children, Margaret Daly grew up in affluence and privilege, traveling between New York City and Montana's Bitterroot Valley. The Daly's Montana estate with its 24,000 square foot mansion is now a state historic site operated by the Daly Mansion Preservation Trust.
In 1900, Margaret Daly, known all her life as "Madge", entered Baltimore society with her marriage to Henry Carroll Brown. The couple divided their time between the Mr. Brown's family estate, Brockland Woods in Baltimore County, and their townhouse at 18 East 76th Street in New York City, where Mr. Brown was a stockbroker with his own firm, H.C. Brown & Co.
While visiting Montana in 1911, Mrs. Brown suffered "a severe attack" for which the high altitude of 7,000 feet was blamed. The decision was made to bring her post-haste to sea level. The New York Times reported on her rushed journey cross-country by private rail car in the care of two physicians and several nurses, and her arrival at her mother's townhouse at 725 Fifth Avenue, the current site of Trump Tower. Margaret Daly Brown died the next day on April 29, 1911, leaving two young daughters, Margaret Price Brown, age 8, and Frances Carroll Brown, age 3.
