Summary

Description
English: Marker at the burial site of John Brown, Stockton resident from 1851 to 1859, who is notable for his four-day ride from Los Angeles to San Francisco to warn Commodore Stockton of the attack on Los Angeles. As a result of his actions, troops were sent to secure the city, and Brown - nicknamed Juan Flaco - became known as the 'Paul Revere of California.' He is buried in the former Citizen's Cemetery near this site, which is #513 on the Office of Historic Preservation's California Historical Landmark list. The address is 100 East Weber Street at North Union Street and is just across Union Street from the former Western Pacific Station.
