The Elizabeth Brashers (Pauper) is the same person who lived with Henry
Breshears before his death in 1829. It is thought that John Brashears is
brother of Henry Alexander Breshears because of this record.The family
tradition in the H.A. Breshears family is "..we had a grandparent who lived
to be well over one hundred years of age."
The 1830 US Census shows this female to have lived over 100 years.
