ZILCH posted by Melinda Beard on Saturday, September 29, 2001

My family found a headstone made from a rock in one of our pastures. The name is not one of past land owners, and our family has owned the property for over 20 years. The name is OSCAR ZILCH. There is no date. Wondering if anyone knew him or if possibly he was a cattleman that may have passed away while driving cattle across Texas. The headstone was found under a tree down by the creek off Lution Drive in Weatherford. Any info appreciated. bdenise531@aol.com Melinda Beard

Tinsley G.

Luke Brewer, born 21 November 1864 in McNairy County, Tennessee; died 31 October 1892 in Springtown, Parker County, Texas, buried Springtown Cemetery, Springtown, Parker County, Texas; married Nancy Jane Sewell Abt. 1890; born 21 December 1871 in Mc Nairy County, Tennessee; died 18 October 1936 in Parker County Texas. Nancy Jane Sewell is the dau of Oliver Perry Sewell and ?Sleeta Jane Jackson. Oliver Perry and Sleeta Jane Sewell are buried in the same plot as the Brewer's along with several of their children in Springtown. A letter from James C. Brewer’s son Leland Marshall Brewer, dated 1955, indicates that W.H. Brewer was an orphan. It is not known if Brewer is his name or the name of his adopted parents. He settled on a farm next to John Jackie Brewer (not related) in McNairy County, Tennessee. James C. Brewer married Margaret Adeline Brewer, daughter of John Jackie and Martha Austin. Both James C. and Margaret Brewer are buried in Ashcreek Cemetery, Azle, Parker County Texas. Marshall further confuses the issue by stating that his name was William Harry Brewer. W.H. Brewer’s death certificate, completed by Tinsley G. Brewer, his son, clearly indicates Harvey for a middle name.
