Description

In 1842 Gillium Hopper, Jr., alias "Dock Brown," arrived in Pine Knob, Grayson County, Kentucky, along with his brother Pinkney and his father Gillium Hopper, Sr., alias "John Brown." Another brother, Moses, joined them from Indiana. For the next nine years, these fugitive criminals continued their murderous ways. Dock Brown married Emily Ross, in the process killing her brother and eventually killing his own father to cover up the crime. The "Browns" robbed travelers, murdering them and depositing their bodies in nearby Big Mouth Cave. In the end, the remaining "Brown" borthers killed each other and the Kentucky saga came to a violent end.
