Lanier Brewer
son of George Brewer
Lanier was born about 1700 - 1715. In 1736 Lanier is listed as assisting in the road from the river to Beaver Pond Creek along with his father and several brothers. He would have been of age to be included in this road order.
He is in his father's will in 1741.
In 1748 he received a patent for 300 acres on the south side of Beaver Pond Creek.
In 1750 and 1752 he and his wife, Joana, sold land in Brunswick County.
After 1750 if you refer to the Ingersoll Lanier, A Genealogy of a Family Who Came to Virginia there is a family story that Lanier's son, Lanier Jr. was married twice and had a concubine that produced thirty sons and three girls. His son George claimed to be the son of an Indian woman.
Broyhill and Varner's books claim that Lanier moved to present day Monroe County North Carolina where he died between 1790 and 1800. A Will has not been found or a document/Bible that names the children of Lanier.
