Note: One thing to note is Grover Cleveland "Cleave" Brown was born in Nov 1910. Date of the 1910 census that he is with his son Ben Franklin is Apr 1910. SO, did he leave Carrie? She would have been 2 months pregnant. I've seen many times they say widowed when their spouses are still living; but this is noteworthy in deciding if the two Johns are the same.

Research Notes:
I believed John M who married Carrie Holdridge, and John W (Wesley) might have been the same person. But after further research, this has proven to not be the case. However, after much work was put into this John's family, I will leave him in my file, though he will not be attached to anyone.
Benjamin, known son of Gosney (1st wife) lists his father as John W. a widow in 1910.
In 1900 there were Brown "orphans" listed, all living with family members connected to the Gosney family:
son Rutherford, age 24, still single, is boarding with Jasper Daniel & Family - Jasper Daniel 1st cousin to Wm Therkeld Daniel
son Benjamin Brown age 22 is boarding with America Jane Orcutt Anderson, widow - he later m America's dau, Mary Lucy; after Ben died, she married Rutherford - but point being - Ben, too, was "displaced" in 1900.
John C. Brown age 16 (Dec 1884)- in 1900 living with William Therkeld Daniel & wife Dora Clemans.
(Wm Daniel is brother of Henry Daniel whose son-in-law was John C. Gosney, brother of Eliza Gosney Brown)
Mary V. Brown age 10 (1890) in 1900 with Jonathan Clemans (Jonathan Clemans was father of Dora Clemans
I believe John C and Mary V are likely other children of John M (or W-Wesley) and Eliza Gosney.
No record of John M. (W-Wesley) then from 1890 till 1910 when he shows up again as a widower living with son Ben Franklin iIn KY. He could have been in Arkansas having 2nd family with Carrie Elizabeth Holdridge.
In 1910 Ben Franklin Brown has in his h/h John W, his father; and a cousin Chester Brown age 12 (1898)

And then John W is married again in 1920 to a Sarah K., living amongst Gosneys and Daniels.
Problem is none of these kids of Holdridge are in any 1910 census that I can find. John M (or W-Wesley) is not in 1900. Case that John W of KY and John W who had kids in Arkansas is questionable but not impossible. If family knowledge is that there was "Uncle Rutherford" and "Uncle Benjamin" would make the case.
John married Eliza J. Gosney in 1870 in Grants Lick, Campbell Co, Kentucky. Eliza (daughter of Benjamin Coleman Gosney and Susana Beckett) was born in 1852 in Kentucky; died before 1900 in of, Grants Lick, Campbell Co, Kentucky. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
