The proper nouns in the sentence are "Aunt Bess" and "brother." "Aunt Bess" is a specific person's name, while "brother" is used as a title before a specific person's relationship to the speaker.
Although popular to the ill-informed masses , the Brown Bess was not named for the color of its stock, nor its barrel, nor for the Queen, it was called the 'brown bess' because of then common use of the word 'brown' as meaning drab or cheap, and the word 'bess' was used to refer to a cheap woman or harlot. The barrel was often cheaply treated or painted brown to protect it from rusting. Thus among the lower class of soldiers that often carried them, the term ' brown bess', that was first used in the 1600's, became an appealing name for their own 'harlot' piece.
