The Cyclopedia of New Zealand [Canterbury Provincial District]

Brown, Mrs Annie

Brown, Mrs Annie, Storekeeper, North Road, Belfast. This business was established in 1882, by Mrs Brown's husband, the late Mr. William E. Brown, who was a native of Lancashire, England. He arrived in New Zealand with his wife in 1879, and since his death, in 1891, the business has been carried on by Mrs Brown. The store occupies the front of a two-storey double-fronted building, contains a very complete stock of groceries, ironmongery, glassware, and all goods necessary to the equipment of a general store, and does the largest trade in the district. Mrs Brown is a native of Lancashire, England, and the appearance of her well-stocked shop does credit to her business ability.
