Brown Homestead

The Brown Homestead (also known as the Brown-Jouppien House) is a designated heritage property located on 1317 Pelham Road, St. Catharines, Ontario.

[2] In 1784, land was purchased in the Niagara Peninsula from the Mississaugas by the British government with the intent of Loyalist resettlement after the American Revolution.

Brown had served the British crown and was a private in Captain Lewis Genevay's Company of the Butler's Rangers.

Brown's property in upstate New York was confiscated by the state and he was eventually granted 900 acres of land in the townships of Thorold, Pelham and Louth.

In turn, the property was bought by Jon Jouppien in 1979, who performed renovations to the house itself.
