"William H. Brewer died last evening at the family residence, 23 Orchard St., age 90 years. Deceased leaves to mourn his loss his wife, two sons, A. J. H. Brewer of Onondaga, Mich., and A. O. Brewer of Decatur, Ill.; two daughters, Mrs. Phineas Moore of Niagara Falls, N.Y. and Mrs. Sylvester Spring of Warsaw, N.Y. The funeral will take place from the house, Wednesday, July 19th, at 10 o'clock a.m. Internment in Budd's Cemetery."
William H. Brewer was born in Westchester Co., NY. He likely lived in New York City at some point with his first wife Martha Davis, since one of their sons lists that as his birthplace. By 1838, William and Martha have had 5 kids together. Martha must have died in this time frame, too. By 1840, William is remarried to Mary Freeman and is living in Lockport, NY. He and Mary have 6 kids together, though the youngest three die in childhood.
William H. Brewer lives to almost 90 years old, dying a week prior to that landmark birthday.
