YALE COLLEGE, CLASS OF 1822
JOSEPH MARSH BREWSTER, son of Jonathan and Lois (Marsh) Brewster, of Worthington, Massachusetts, was born on November 15, 1797, and entered Williams College in 1817. After two years there, he entered the Sophomore Class here.
He studied theology with President Griffin (Yale 1790), of Williams College, and was ordained and installed on December 29, 1824, as pastor of the Congregational Church in Peru, a town adjoining his native place.
His ministry there was highly successful, until the inroads of consumption compelled his dismission on September 10, 1833, in his 37th year.
He married in May, 1825, Mary Morgan, of Northampton, who died on March 5, 1827, leaving one child, who was graduated at Williams College in 1845, but died the same year.
He married, secondly, on October 2, 1827, Eliza, only child of David Addison and Mary (Day) Noble, of Williamstown, and granddaughter of Judge David Noble (Yale 1764). She died in Williamstown on September 9, 1863, in her 71st year.
