Is there NO chance that John R Long died or left and she remarried the Jackson M Brown?
Maybe Jackson Brown was running from Long?

Have you checked the Ft. Smith Criminal Case Files, 1866-1900 ?
There are several cases involving John Longs'. Ancestry has the indexes but you can access them for free here:

Checking for a criminal record at Fort Smith sounds interesting, but
I am unsure just how to find the files that you have referred to.
