Howell Brewer, II

Notes

From http://brewerresearcher.blogspot.com/2010/03/howell-brewers-part-ii...

”Howell Jr. Was born in Brunswick Co. VA in the early 1740s. He evidently joined his father in Orange Co. NC some time later. We do not know whom he married and he moved around quite a bit. He married a second time, moved to West Tennessee and died there. His known children were Isaac, Reuben, Simon and George. ”

From “Comments” at http://brewerresearcher.blogspot.com/2010/03/howell-brewers-part-ii...

”... In 1794 and 1795, the Howell Brewer (Jr.) who was the father of Isaac Brewer (1763-1852) who left us the well-known Rev. War pension application, was residing in HANCOCK COUNTY, GEORGIA. These two Howell Brewers, in Georgia and later Missouri, were probably the same man ... Howell Jr., though still not proven, appears to have been a son of Howell Brewer, Sr., and thus a grandson of George and Sarah Lanier Brewer. The 1772 militia list for Chatham County, NC, shows two men named "Howell Brewer," who were most likely father and son.“
