Sheriff Daniel Jackson Brownell - Holmes Co FL - Killed November 26, 1872
I attended the 2005 Law Enforcement Memorial Services in Tallahassee last weekend and just wanted to make you aware that Sheriff Brownell along with 14 others were honored by Governor Bush and thousands of law enforcement officers from across the state.Sheriff Brownell was killed in the line of duty death in 1872 but never officially recognized.His name was placed on the wall of honor located in the capital courtyard.
I would hope that the Holmes County Sheriff's Department will submit his line of duty application to the National Memorial for consideration in 2006.
