John Brewer II (1600-1669)

JOHN BREWER II was born in 1600 [?] in London, England, and died 1669 in Isle of Wight County, Virginia. He married Ann Reade and immigrated to Virginia with his father, John Brewer I, about 1605. They returned to England before 1615 and then back to Virginia in 1622.

John II was a member of the House of Burgesses in 1657-58. John II lived on the Stanley Hundred or "Brewer's Burough" in Warwick where his father had lived before he died.

It is said that he did his part to establish the principles we now call Democracy. John Brewer died intestate in Isle of Wight County in 1669. In his will, he gave his son, John Brewer III, "Stanley Hundred" and his son, Thomas, "In the land whereon he lives," and named two daughters, Mary and Ann. He also left personal property, as shown by the inventory of his estate, including 87,621 lbs. of tobacco, 155 L. gold and silver money and 78 oz. of valuable plate. His widow, Anne, married Anthony Holliday before 19 October 1671.
