William Brewster, son of William Brewster, was baptized on 31 December 1562 at Castle Hedingam, Essex, England.[1]
William Brewster, gentleman, died 10 August 1607, "in or near Jamestown, Virginia, 'of a wound given by the Savages,'..."[1]
At present I am uncertain as to William's mother. His father is said to have married twice, first to Anne, daughter of William Clopton, Esq., and second to Mirabel, daughter of Sir John Poley. He had sons named William by both wives.[2][1] It is possible William, son of Anne, died young and another son by wife Mirabel was named William. Research needs to be done to determine correct mother. (Strutton-11 16:02, 28 March 2022 (UTC))
