All comment/feedback/help requests within the Gravestone Photographic Resource for the name BREWSTER
A great serviceI would like to take this opportunity to thank Charles and his volunteer crew for making it possible for me to view grave stones from overseas. Viewing these grave stones can connect you to an ancestor in a very personal way, and for that, I am thankful. I will be looking for ways to return the favor by volunteering grave stone and cemetery information when and where possible.
Request for volunteers in EssexGreetings,
I am looking for volunteers to take photographs and information off the gravestones for the Brewster family located in the following towns:
- Chelmsford
- White Notley
- Black Notley
- Braintree
- Halstead
- Little Maplestead
- Belchamp Otten
- Bulmer
- Great Yeldham
- Hedingham Castle
I realize this is a lot of work, but photos from any of these cemeteries would be greatly appreciated and would be a great addition to my family research. I am particularly interested in Hedingham Castle, Halstead, and White Notley. Thank you very much for your consideration!
Request for volunteers in SuffolkGreetings,
I am looking for volunteers to collect photographs and information from Brewster grave stones in the following towns:
- Mutford (St. Andrew's Church)
- Rushmere (St. Michael's Church)
- Wrentham (St. Ncholas's Church)
In addition, I am looking for a photo of any buildings still remaining where my ancestor's home, Wrentham Hall, was. I believe it was torn down in the 1800s but even a photo of the lot would be nice.
Special Request for volunteer in EssexGreetings,
In addition to several requests for grave stone photos in Essex and Suffolk I am submitting, I do have a special request. At one time, the Brewster family had built Wrentham Hall in Wrentham, Suffolk and commissioned a stained-glass or painted window to be built within the hall that displayed many generations of Brewster marriages. The window had, reportedly, 12 Coats of Arms upon it, information I gathered from an ancestor's journal from the 1800s.
Wrentham Hall was demolished at some point in the 1800s, and the family supposedly moved the window to Greenstead Hall (formerly Halstead Lodge) in Halstead, Essex. From what information I can glean, it seems that this hall is located on Church Road, appx. 0.7 km south from Colchester Road (A1124).
I was hoping to find a volunteer who would be so gracious as to find the hall and see if the window still exists. I would love to have a photograph of it, and any other information related to it. Should the volunteer need additional assistance locating the hall, I do have several old photographs of the residence. Feel free to email me at any time at awbrewster@cox.net. Thank you very much!
Request for volunteer in NottinghamshireGreetings,
I am looking for a volunteer who would be willing to take photographs and information from Brewster graves or monuments in Scrooby, Nottinghamshire. From what I can gather, the most promising location is the church cemetery located near the intersection of Great North Road (A638) and Church Lane. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Request for volunteer in Middleton, ManchesterGreetings,
I am looking for a volunteer to look for Brewster gravestones in St. Leonard's Parish Church (Middleton Rectory) near Middleton, Manchester. There may only be one or two of them.
Thank you in advance!

Thank you so muchI am new to family research and have just recently found your website. Thank you very much for your speedy response to my request for the image of the grave of my relatives in Leeds. What a special moment it is to be able to actually see the monument and start to piece together the different names. Thank you again.
