James: Thanks for the response. A 1900 Scott Co, Arkansas census shows William M. living with Nancy and their children: John Mary, Joseph, Rosa, Charles, Minerva A. (my gr-grandmother), and Mattie. He later married his second wife Melinda Jane Wineland. Wm M. married Nancy Brewer in 1866 in Arkansas. She was born abt. 1845 in TN and died 1916 in Ark. I don't have anything beyond her parents but her father was Eli Brewer born abt. 1815 in No. Car. and died 1850 in Ark. Her mother was Louisa unknown born 1814 in TN and also died 1850 in Ark. I don't have anything further for them.
Your comment sparked my interest -- I went back and found an 1840 Rutherford TN census with an Eli Brewer aged betw. 30 - 40 with a woman the same age range, three young boys and 2 young girls. I know that Rutherford is in the middle of the state where yours in closer to VA but found it interesting.
