I am a descendant of the Brower's that came from Duthchess Co., NY about 1830 to Missouri. 4 brothers came together and settled there. John Abraham Brower, Chancellor L. , Lawyer and my ancestor Jeremiah Brower. The 1850 census of Scyuler Co. shows both Jeremiah and wife Nancy and family living in there as well as John Abraham and wife Susan and family. I have extensive files on all of these brothers. In 1882 a very large group of these men's descendants migrated to Oregon via the Oregon Trail lead by Dr. Jeremiah Brower's widow Nancy. From that large group they then slowly made way to Washington and settled and are there until today in big numbers. If you are tracking Brower's in Missouri, then you are most likely related to me. Please write and I can share my files with you. Lillian Kathleen Martin
