E, Iowa 24th Inf. from 1864 to 1865. Disabled due to gun shot wound in right foot received at the Battle of Winchester, Va. I would like to thank Kathy Burr for the following transcription. Elias Brewer Dead. Father Brewer died last Friday evening November 30, 1909, at the home of his daughter Mrs. C. J. Tracy in this city after a short illness. Mr. Brewer was one of the old settlers of Sherman County. He was born in Belmont county, Ohio, October 24, 1826. While he was yet a child his parents moved to Richland county, Indiana, where he grew to manhood. Later he moved to Galena, Illinois, and on May 4, 1854, was married to Miss Rosalind Perkins, at Buffalo Grove, Illinois. They made their home at Galena for a time and later moved to Dubuque, Iowa. During their residence in Iowa, Mrs. Brewer died, and Mr. Brewer moved to Nebraska, locating at Loup City. Eight children were born to them, two of whom have died, one in childhood and the other Charles L. Brewer once a resident of Loup City died after he had reached manhood. Those still living are: Mrs. O. E. Briggs, Crane, Missouri; Harvey E. Brewer, Salt Lake City, Utah; Miss Ida Mae Brewer, Minneapolis, Minn.; and Mrs. Dr. Jones, Mrs. C. J. Tracy and F. E. Brewer, of Loup City. During the Civil war Mr. Brewer enlisted in the 24th, Iowa Infantry and served until the close of the was. He was wounded at the battle on Winchester. Mr. Brewer was raised a Quaker and was a member of that church until during his residence in Galena, when he united with the Methodist church of which he has been a member to the close of his life. The funeral services were held last Sunday from the Methodist church, Rev. Harper conducting the services assisted by Rev. James of the Baptist church. The remains were taken to the Evergreen cemetery where the last sad rites of the Masonic Lodge was given, which together with the Order of the Eastern Star, the deceased was a member, and all that was mortal of a neighbor, father, friend, soldier for his count [sic] and soldier for his God, he was lowered to his last resting place. The best monument that father Brewer left behind was the fixed purpose he had in life to serve his master and to rear his children...the same path. The community extends sympathy to the bereaved ones. All of his children were present at the time of his death but his son Charles [sic] E. Brewer of Salt Lake City.
