Definition
Various cities and towns in the United States, most notably in Texas and New York.
Etymology
Named after Major Jacob Brown, an American military officer who died defending Fort Texas (later Fort Brown) during the Mexican-American War. The '-ville' suffix comes from French 'ville' meaning 'town'.
Kelly Says
Brownsville, Texas, sits directly on the Mexican border and represents one of America's most culturally blended communities, where the naming after an Anglo military officer overlays a fundamentally bicultural reality. The proliferation of Brownsvilles across America reflects the 19th-century practice of honoring military heroes through place names.
