Brewer Farm (MP Site #12/38)
20201 Darnestown Road, Beallsville is part of the Brewer family farmstead, Woodstock, purchased by Dr. William G. Brewer in 1834 (with John J. Wilkinson Jones from Oak Ridge/Eleven Brothers). The buildings remaining on the property date from 1861 when Dr. Brewer’s grandson, George Brewer, built a large house and numerous outbuildings, and from 1908 when George’s son, William G., inherited the farm, modified the house and added more outbuildings. The Brewers, who moved from Anne Arundel County in the early 19th century, were notable physicians, attorneys, and leaders in agricultural and political activities in Montgomery County. The stone tenant house, springhouse, well house, machine shed, and slave quarter sites are on a 353.62-acre environmental setting.
