Joseph Brewer Census Chart

Joseph Brewer (1811-1874) was a son of Isaac Brewer (1763-1852) and Sarah (1773 - after 1854). He was born in Georgia and was raised there and in East Tennessee, and moved to Talladega County, Alabama before 1840. The following chart follows his household, and where each child ended up after adulthood. An "X" indicates that a child was not yet born, or was no longer living with Joseph and Elizabeth. I only showed birth place for the first census on which it appeared for each family member, unless there were inconsistencies, as with Elizabeth.
