She married Tom Potter at age 16 and later had a daughter she named Bobbie. Gladys Marie Brown died in 1944 when her only daughter Bobbie was 14 years old. The story is that she was run over by a speeding car out on the road in front of the family farm in Oklahoma. Tragically it was on mother's day.
John Elliot Brown was the father of Marie Gladys Brown. He was a full blooded Cheeroke Indian. Five Indian Nations were moved into the Oklahma Territories including the Choctaw and the Cheerokes. A strip of land known as "No Man's Land" which was part of the Indian Reservations became part of the Oklahoma Territories in 1891. Also know as the brown area or poor man's refuge.
