Edward (sic) B. Brewer, who comes of one of Marion County's prominent families, resides in Grand Prairie township, on the Sandusky and Marion pike, and is the owner of 503 acres of valuable farm land, of which 210 acres are in Salt Rock township. He was born in Salt Rock township, Marion County, Ohio, August 1, 1862, and is a son of Emery and Cynthia (Lapham) Brewer.


Edward (sic) B. Brewer was seven years of age when his parents located on the place where he has ever since lived. He first attended school in Salt Rock township one year, and then attended school in Grand Prairie township, in the meantime assisting his father in the work upon the farm. He has always farmed and is one of the most prosperous agriculturists of his community. He is one of the most extensive stock-raisers in the county, feeding about 200 head of cattle and some 1,500 head of sheep. A man of enterprise and public spirit, he gives his support to such measures as are calculated to advance the interests of the county and the community in which he lives.

On November 23, 1882, Mr Brewer was united in marriage with Ida Carhart, daughter of G.W. and Ann (Merchant) Carhart, and to them have been born five children, as follows: Harry Carhart, who died at the age of six months; Herbert Merchant, born February 25, 1885; Leroy, born June 9, 1887; Elrey Lapham, born December 27, 1889; and Gertrude May, born December 11, 1891.

Edward (sic) B. Brewer resides on 242 acres of the old home farm owned by his mother, and himself has a tract of 172 acres lying directly across the road. He has two farms in Salt Rock township--one of fifty acres and the other of 160 acres. The family owns 1,374 acres in Marion county, all told. Fraternally, he is a member of Marion Lodge No. 402, Knights of Pythias. Views of Mr. Brewer's residence and barn accompany this sketch.
