Death Brown's health continued to worsen, and later that year he died in a medical home in Pimlico, London at the age of 35. Heavy smoking had contributed to asthma and heart problems. The cause of death was given as heart failure and "congestion of the brain".

For clarity, subject of this article is often described as Brown, J. T. (Driffield), the other as Brown, J. T. (Darfield).
