- _UID: 1A5886E3DCA94A35A63CA64AA8819CE45A60
Notes:
David's birth date is established by 1850 census. He was listed as 18. His father remarried in Apr 1832; thus, David probably born late in 1831.
His last child was born in 1857. Lucretia purchased a lot in Brookhaven on January 1, 1858. She sold it for a profit March 20, 1860. She and their three children were enumerated with her father, Moses Rials, in Marion county in 1860. David's death assumed about 1857.
By 1870, Lucretia had married Elijah Cothern. She is listed with him in Marion county 1870 census (Page 323, house 675), age 44, with her three children, William 16, Sarah 15, Napoleon 12.
A land grant for 120 acres in Lawrence County, MS, was given to "David Wesley Brewer of Marion County Mississippi." This grant dated 1 June 1859. Washington Meridian, T5N, R11E, Sec. 26, E1/2NW1/4 and SW1/4NW1/4. If death date assumption above is correct, this patent was issued after his death. This land was in Marion county until 27 Feb 1884 when sections 19 through 36 of T5NR11E and a small part of T4R11 were transferred to Lawrence from Marion and Pike.
Marion county Deed book C, page 773, 26 Oct. 1855. David Brewer mortgaged above tract to Needham B Raiford, note to be paid 1 Jan 1856 for $154.94. "Land where BREWER lives in Marion County." Note paid, mortgage cancelled, recorded 28 Jan 1856.
Next record of this land found Marion Deed Book H, Page 245, 26 Sep 1874. Land had conveyed to State of MS for nonpayment of taxes. Deed dated 1 Dec 1873 conveys land from MS to W. W. Brewer (son of David W Brewer) who was high bidder at tax sale. Price $15. No other action this land found in Marion. W W Brewer apparently sold in Lawrence after county boundaries changed.
Land entry file ordered from NARA 9 Oct 2003. Hope to reconcile Brewer obtaining a seed mortgage on land in 1855 and patent issued 1859. File received 31 Oct 03. It contained four items:
1. Receipt date Washington, MS, Oct 19, 1855, from receiver's office for $15 in payment for 120 acres (identified above) at $0.125/acre.
2. Document dated same in which David Brewer certified that the land was not previously occupied and that he is a legitimate settler.
3. Warrant of the Land Office dated same as above stating: "that on presentation of this certificate to the COMMISSIONER OF THE GENERAL LAND OFFICE, the said David Wesley Brewer shall be entitled to receive a Patent for the lot above described."
4. Copy of Patent Certificate 12534 issued from Washington, DC, June 1, 1859.
[Mystery explained. Federal bureaucrats as fouled up in 1855 as in 2004.]

In same census, next house, #28, is her son William W and his family. House #30 is Fielding Dunaway f/of William's wife Elizabeth. From booklet "Bogue Chitto Baptist Church, Carters Creek, MS 1812-1962, Celebrates Its Sesquicentennial". Booklet gives brief history of church. One item: 1884 Enon Baptist Church was organized in The Grange hall, located near the Head of Carter's Creek. The following members were granted letters of dismissal from Bogue Chitto into this organization. W. W. Brewer, Elijah Cothern, Lucretia Cothern, and 20 others. This proves Lucretia lived at least to 1884. W. W. Brewer was her son by David Brewer.

- _UID: C2B035C447AC404EA5E33A35E4379C5CF6CB

Settled in Lawrence County, Mississippi.
Moses' first wife was Sarah Sallie Carney, with which he had 9 children. After Sarah died in 1868, Moses remarried in 1869 to Mary Wallace and he fathered four more children. Must consider possibility Mary Wallace had children from prior marriage.
Excerpt from 16 Aug 1932 text written by W.B. Russell age 82:
"Moses Rials, Morn May 11, 1804, died on his 86th birthday, May 11, 1890. Moses Rials married Sallie Carney, daughter of John Carney, son of Ikenably, an Indian Chief. John Carney's mother was American.
Grandma Sallie Carney had a sister, Pollie, whose posterity dead. She married a green. I remember visiting her. She lived on what is now known as the Pollie Green place, half a mile southeast of where Uncle John Rials and wife are buried (old Mismark Church). One daughter of John Carney married a Baugh, posterity lives in the counties of Smith, Simpson and Hines."
The 1870 census for Marion county, MS, Ancestry image 109, lists Moses Rials with wife Mary 37, and children Simon W 15, Joseph 14, Mahala 11 and Jeff Davis 10. This would put Simon's birth year as 1855, 7 years after Sarah Carney Rials 9th child when she would have been 47 years old. All of these children are proper age to be Mary's children.
