See Garry Wayne Brewer's notes under Henry M. Brewer.  From that note, regarding the dispersal of
Henry M. Brewer's estate, he says: "The last child's part was divided into thirds and paid to
G.W.Brewer, J.N.Brewer and G.W.Ray, suggestion a family of a son of Henry and Mary with three
surviving Children, two sons and a daughter. A William Brewer died in Wayne County in 1849 and was
survived by a widow and four children. The name of only one child has been found.  The estate was
administered by A.J. Brewer, who could have been a brother to the Deceased.  1/4 of William Brewer's
estate was paid to a guardianship of a minor son, Joseph. H.G. Brewer, son of Wiley Brewer was
appointed guardian of Joseph. He appears in the 1850 census in the Henry G. Brewer household at age
18...The G.W. of the Henry Brewer settlement is believed to be the George Brewer, age 21,
with Elizabeth in the 1850 Wayne County census and also the Geo. W. Brewer, age 29, with wife Mary.
in the 1860 Wayne County, This is possible because, obviously, the wife, age 19, in the 1860 census
is not the mother of the three children ages 11,9 and 6. Possibly Elizabeth died between 1850 and
1860 and George married again. J.N. , could be the Joseph or another brother, if not Joseph, then
Joseph must have died between 1850 & 1855 when most of the payments against Henry M. Brewer's estate
were made. The other part was paid to G.W.Ray. G.W.Ray, in the Wayne County census, had a wife,
Rachel."
