7th Tennessee Calvary, Co D, private, enlisted for 1 year and was discharged on 10/26/63 at Saulsbury, TN. He apparently re-enlisted or was captured as a citizen because he ended up in Andersonville Prison in Georgia. He died there in the carnal house on either 6/27/64 or 7/1/64 of diarrhea. There is a military marker for him in the Ramble Creek Cemetery in Benton Co, TN but it must be a memorial. His widow, Julia A McGee, m. 1859 in Henry Co, TN, applied for a pension in the 1867 and is on the 1883 pension list as receiving $8 per month. She reported in the 1890 census that Brewer had been captured and died in prison. She lived near the Big Sandy Post Office in Benton Co, TN at that time. Brewer appears to have been the son of Lewis W and Martha Ann Herrington Brewer.
