Wilbur Langdon Brewer was born in Morrison, Whiteside County, Illinois to Gilbert and Amelia [unknown] Brewer. According to the 1870 census, the father, Gilbert, was 34 years of age and born in Massachusetts as were his parents. I think he was born in Berkshire County, MA because there were a number of Brewer families from there who traveled and settled in Illinois and even in Whiteside County. Also, the Langdon name has long been associated with the Brewer family leading me to believe his mother may have been a Langdon since Wilbur was the oldest son. My great grandfather [Daniel Porter Brewer] was born in Berkshire County in 1809 the son of Daniel and Electa Langdon Brewer and was one of 7 boys. I do not know if they all reached adulthood. Is it possible that Wilbur was the son of one of the brothers? Anyway, Wilbur married Eunice Farrington and eventually they moved to Jerome, Idaho where he passed away April 25th, 1941. Eunice passed away January 21st, 1942 there, also. I have been unable to determine where Gilbert and Amelia Brewer died. I feel fairly certain they are not in Whiteside County. I guess it is not really important to locate the burial sites of Gilbert and Amelia for my own use. I have this page of obituaries about Wilbur and his wife and would just like to know if they are related to my Brewers. Thanks for any help or ideas. Arlene in Illinois
