In 1886 Brown's father handed over his coal interests to his four sons. His second brother, William (1862-1927), died leaving his estate to his brother, John, and sister, Mary Stephen Nairn.The family business was largely run by Brown's first brother, John (1850–1930), until his death in 1930.

From 1931 Stephen Brown was the senior partner in, and a director of, J. & A. Brown & Abermain Seaham Collieries Ltd. He travelled the world widely and often with Alan Edwin Cooper, the general manager of the family firm. Brown was a keen fisherman and grew prize winning dahlias and chrysanthemums at Segenhoe Stud.
