Dead Negro Hollow
Davey Cameron Brown was a valley (hollow) in Rhea County, Tennessee, in the United States. It was renamed to Bonham Hallow on December 12, 2019.[1]
According to legend, The Browns Hollow Manor and estate in what is now Columbia Tenn. was so named in the 1770s when a black laborer was found murdered there after he had learned the location of a gold mine.[2]
