The Charlotte who was born in 1750 is the same one who married William Brown. The Charlotte Brown that I am interested in is their daughter, hence why the dates are off.

Any help you can give me with William Brown or his daughter Charlotte would be greatly appreciated.

Not looked William Brown but the birthdate you found looks a little off.
It does indeed. William Brown and Charlotte Hogg were married in 1773, when William Brown must have been at least 14 years old, therefore he cannot have been born as late as 1761.

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

My notes say that William was the son of Samuel Brown and Nicola Murdoch of Minnigaff, Kirkcudbright and was baptised 14th March 1738.
