William Brown was born in Cumberland, England on June 1, 1819. He immigrated with his family to Oneida County, New York, United States in 1827. Brown studied law in Rome, New York and was admitted to the bar. He moved to Rockford, Illinois on November 10, 1846. Initially a public school teacher, Brown was soon elected a justice of the peace. In 1852, Brown was elected state's attorney for Winnebago, Stephenson, and Jo Daviess Counties, serving three years.
At the expiration of his term, he was elected mayor of Rockford, serving one year. He was named agent for the Galena and Chicago Union Railroad in 1857. From 1857 to 1860, he practiced law with future United States Representative William Lathrop. Brown then partnered with H. W. Taylor until 1870. From 1861 to 1865, he served as Rockford School Inspector. In 1864, Brown was elected as a Republican to the Illinois House of Representatives, serving one two-year term from the 55th district.

He was re-elected to this post in every election until his death, serving 20 years.
Brown married Caroline H. Miller, the daughter of Horace Miller, on September 19, 1850. Their eldest son, Edward W., was thrice elected mayor of Rockford.
