To be used as a guide only!

Please take note!
I am not connected to this family and have no further information other than what is listed below.
Research was done on this family because of the Family Burial Plot found of Joseph and Catherine Brearley.
It is only my hopes that these records can help preserve their family history due to the shape of the
headstones on the family homestead.
Within a short time I believe this family burial plot will disappear from view.
So please do not email me with questions on this family, all I have is listed on this page.
