  1. I am a descendant of William Brewer, who was born in 1824, married to Lene (Lena) Andersen. I would love to correspond with other descendants, especially if you have any photos or information about who William's parents are. I have been searching for them for many, many years. Your help would be so appreciated. I would be pleased to share my photos with you as well. Please contact me by email: d.bake7@gmail.com

  2. I'm a descendant of William Brewer. I would like to know more about his past, and when and where he died. John Brewer, one of his sons, is my great, great grandfather. I read that John died a mysterious death at a sheep camp, and that foul play was suspected, but I was never able to find the results of the incident. If anyone has any information on this family line, I would like to know more!
