Brower Gravestone Photos

The photos below of Brower gravestones were sent to me a few years ago by Mary Kay McDowell. They were taken at the Mennonite Cemetery at Parker Ford, Chester County, Pennsylvania. I do not know when they were taken. The community of Parker Ford is in East Coventry Township, Pennsylvania, and so I suspect that the gravestones belong to members a family, or families, descended from Hubert Brower. I am not, however, certain of this. As I do not see myself spending any time trying to track down just who these persons are, I figured I would simply make them available online to anyone who may be interested. If any one who does come across them believes they know just who these individuals are, please feel free to leave that information using the Comments section for this entry (below). And feel free to download the images for your own use.

  1. Thank you for posting these grave photos! They are indeed descendants of Hubert Brauer. They are Magdalena Buckwalter who married Abraham Brower (son of Henry and grandson of Hubert), Magdalena's daughter Hannah and son Abraham, and Abraham's young son Isaac.
