Family:Daniel Brewer and Joanna Unknown (1)

Mrs. Ferris on George and Hannah

Mrs. Ferris includes in the family of Daniel Brewter, "VI. George(2), no record of birth, but his death in 1646 is claimed [History of Roxbury, Fallas Genealogy, 236-7; "My Ancestors" (Paine), 102; Rand Genealogy, 10], but he is not mentioned in will of Daniel(1) (Brewer)."^[3]

"A statement is made [Chandler Genealogy, 3,9; Booth and Allied Families, 157] that Hannah (considered a variant of Joanna) a claimed daughter in this family married about 1651-2 Thomas(2) Chandler (William(1)) and died at Andover Oct. 25 1717, ae 87-8. It seems doubtful that "Joanna" would be changed thus and more likely that the Hannah concerned was not attached to this family."^[3]

Robert Charles Anderson on George and Hannah

Some secondary sources claim a son George who died in 1646, but there is no evidence for his existence. A daughter Hannah has also been proposed, but without proof. [McArthur-Barnes 142, and sources cited there].^[2]
