Rudolph was born in Africa about 1791 and died May 5, 1846, from "Bilious pneumonia." Brown was born April 10, 1838, and died November 22, 1844, from "whooping cough."

      Jack Rudolph and Boysey Brown were among the slaves owned by the University of Alabama and by faculty. Their burials were honored and recognized by the University of Alabama on April 15, 2004.
