Thomas Brewster , Writtle

[willis]

My 4x Great Grandfather was Thomas Brewster who was born in Writtle in 1774. I am looking for his parents and siblings. There is a great brewster presence in Writtle but as yet I can't tie them in. Would appreciate any thoughts.
Also the IGI has his marriage as 12th December 1797 to Mary Murdock but there is no mention of this in the Parish Record. Again any help greatfuly received.

Thank you Sue. If thats the spelling in the Parish Record then I can see how its been overlooked.
All I need now are his parents & siblings.

Hello Willis

I have a Thomas BREWSTER b. 1774, second cousin 6 times removed, (but I don't know in which village born) to Jonathan BREWSTER and Mary (nee BUCKINGHAM).  Although Jonathan and Mary were married in Good Easter in 1759 it's quite possible that they were in Writtle by 1774.

In fact, my maternal grandfather, Harry BREWSTER, was born in Writtle in 1882.

Is my Thomas of any interest to you?

Regards
The Wombat

Hi Wombat

                  There is a fair chance that any Brewsters from Writtle are tied into my tree. As for Great Easter, I know that there are many Brewsters there but as yet have not been able to link them with the Writtle clan.
