Not the child of William Brewes, Esq., of Stinton Hall and Elizabeth “Isabel” Brewes / Jermy


William de Brewer lived on an estate in Chard, Somerset, western UK by 1500. .

ACCORDING TO SOURCES WILLIAM (the heir of Stinton and Ludborough) AND ELIZABETH (HOPTON) HAD TWO DAUGHTERS CAUSING THE ESTATES OF STINTON AND LUDBOROUGH TO PASS FROM THE BRAOSE FAMILY TO THE HANSARD FAMILY. A SIBLING BRANCH OF THE BRAOSE FAMILY REMAINED ON THE ESTATE OF TOPCROFT AND OF LITTLE WENHAM, SUFFOLK ACCORDING TO THE HISTORICAL RECORDS OF ALL SAINTS CHURCH, LITTLE WENHAM.

However, the line which leads to America is William b1482 but now taking the Brewe spelling and finally adding an R at the end to be more English rather than French Norman. William Brewer was living in Gloucestershire and Somerset establishing a new prominent family, the Brewers of Chard, Somerset with son Edward being born in the years between 1500-1520 in Chard, Somerset. Edward's son there was the well known Dr. William Brewer, Physician of Chard who is memorialized in the Anglican church in Chard. But they were soon to re-establish themselves in London and finally on to the new Virginia Colony by the James River.
