In the Nov 1818 congressional petition, filed by Mary Brower, maiden name Losier, widow of Abraham Brower, s/o Abraham, s/o Abraham, s/o Adam, she lists the children of Jeremiah Brower, she says that Jeremiah Brower is dead, and he was the brother of her own dead husband Abraham.
I have the 22 pages which are photocopies of the ORIGINAL documents, which the National archives sent to me. The copies are very good, and I studied them last summer.
Mary said that Jeremiah Brower had 7 children, but she only listed the names of 6 children, meaning perhaps one of them was dead prior to Nov 1818 when she filed the petition.
She named the children as follows:
Lawrence Brower
George Brower
Sarah (Brower) Vachter
Charity (Brower) Tidemon
Anna (Brower) Van Cleve (m. Benjamin Van Cleve)
Rebecca (Brower) Shannon (m. John Shannon)". Hereinafter cited as "L.
