Hello Peter, Only just seen your message. In my family of BREWS (who originate from the IOM), the names of 4 heads of family was Thomas, and they all lived in the Everton/West Derby areas of Liverpool. Have you been able to trace back very far in your own Tree? I look forward to seeing how you get on, and will assist you if I can. I assume that you have seen the masses of information on the BREW ONE NAME STUDY website. Good Luck! Peter BREW, St. Day, Cornwall.
