Who built the Browning House in Ogden? Now we know
I was reading about the so-called Browning House at 2529 Jackson Ave., and I would like to make a correction to your Sept. 16 article (“Ogden’s Historic Browning House for sale after years of renovation”). The house was built by my uncle, John Franklin Ellis, and his wife Telitha Browning, who was a daughter of Mathew Sandefur Browning and niece of John Browning.
When the couple was in England working for the Amalgamated Sugar Co., Telitha’s sister, Blanche, lived there for about eight years with her husband, Dr. Junior Edward Rich, until John Franklin Ellis and his wife returned.
Hope this clears up the mystery.
