Biography
James Brewster born say 1568 probably in Scrooby died 14 Jan 1613 in Sutton, Nottinghamshire, England. He married Mary Welbeck who died 7 Apr 1637 in Sutton, Nottinghamshire, England and they had four daughters: Grace who married William Glaive, Elizabeth, Susanna and Judith who married Edward Oldfied.[2]
He is proposed to be the James Brewster who was vicar of Sutton cum Laude [Sutton cum Lound]. He matriculated at St John's College at Cambridge in 1582, succeeded Henry Brewster (his uncle) as vicar at Sutton on Lound in 1594. His brother William Brewster testified on his behalf.[3][4][3] Although it has not been decisively proven that this son James is identical to the man of the same name who was vicar.[5] However, the evidence is fairly strong that he was.
