JACOB HARRISON BREWER DIES; WAS VETERAN OF CIVIL WAR
Early This Morning After An Illness of Almost Two Years; Resided Here For Eleven Years
Jacob Harrison Brewer, Civil War Veteran who had lived here since 1916, died at his home 220 Battle Avenue, at 2:55 o'clock this morning after and illness of a year and eight months. He had been confined to his bed since April 1926, when he was seized with a stroke of apoplexy which resulted in paralysis and heart trouble. He has been partially blind for nearly twenty years.
Mr. Brewer served in Company K, 97th regiment, Indiana Volunteer Infantry, during the Civil War.
He was born in Cannonburg, Ohio on April 21, 1841, the son of John Harford Brewer and Minerva Jane Priest Brewer. In his youth Mr. Brewer moved to Indiana with his parents, and for many years lived at Lusk's Springs, Park County. Later he lived in Terre Haute. Subsequently he lived at Millett, Alberta, Canada. In the spring of 1911 he moved to Brooklyn and five years later in this city, where he lived until his death.
He suffered from cataract of the right eye for twenty years. Last year, his left eye, too was inflicted, rendering him also totally blind. At various times in his life Mr. Brewer was engaged in farming, milling, timber and grocery businesses in the cities and towns where he lived. He had been inactive for the last fifteen years.
He is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Almida Martin, of Terre Haute, and by three sons, Irving Brewer of 220 Battle Avenue, this city; Governor L. Brewer of Belmont, Michigan, and John J. Brewer of Maywood, California. The funeral services have not yet been completed.
