Brown was first elected Whig MP for Tewkesbury at the 1832 general election but lost the seat at the next general election in 1835. However, he regained the seat in 1837 and held the seat until he stood down in 1859.[7][3]
Brown's family were well-known in the Tewkesbury. His father, also named John, was also a Whig MP for the seat before him, while his brother James became Liberal MP immediately after he stepped down in 1859.[8][9]
