Has anyone researched the lineage of Confederate Captain Calvin C. Brewer? I strongly suspect a connection to MY Howells of Grayson County, VA. Is this the Calvin C. Brewer, son of Russell Brewer and Nancy B. Tolliver who are buried at Trousdale Cemetery in Warren County? Is this the Nancy B. Tolliver Brewer born 1785 daughter of John Taliaferro/Toliver and Tabitha Howell, born 1765 Augusta/Montgomery County, Virginia, daughter of James Howell Sr. (c.1740-1820), who died Grayson County, Virginia? If so, there's a chance this old James Howell is the father of my ancestor Capt. George Howell Sr. who married Mary "Polly" Osborne, daughter of Enoch Osborne, of Grayson County, Virginia. A James Howell died about 1820 in Grayson County naming George Howell and Polly Osborne as heirs. Are the Tollivers of Tolliver's Pawn Shop descended from this same family of Tolivers?
