flower painter, daughter of Samuel Brown and Maria Josepha, née Robinson, was a relative of George Augustus Robinson; her brother John was active in establishing the association which initiated the free colony of South Australia. Maria Josepha Brown was living in Adelaide when she produced watercolours of English flowers in a very competent early nineteenth-century style, including Roses, Morning Glory and Pansies (1837, AGSA). She became the second wife of Charles Mann, first advocate-general of South Australia, in 1837. They had one son, Charles.
