Honoring Our Ancestors

This blog is dedicated to the Brewer Family of North Carolina. These pages present our recent family gatherings and more distant family history.
We have an ongoing effort to capture the Brewer genealogy to best honor our ancestors. We've identified our ancestors who moved from Mecklenburg County, Virginia to Orange and Chatham Counties, NC as early as 1750. In the 1800s, we saw a migration to Alexander and Iredell Counties in NC, Tennessee, and Kentucky. By the 20th century our family made their homes all over the nation.

Margaret Louise Brewer Smithey (1944-2018)

Margaret Louise Brewer Smithey died on March 24, 2018.  She was the daughter of Dewey Samuel Brewer and the wife of Thomas Lee Smithey.  Margaret played a key part in encouraging the Brewer family to gather at reunions.  She provided information for originally establishing our family tree, now numbering about 8,000  descendants.
