The following information has been extracted from the 1881 Census Surname Index for Cumberland, by the LDS Church, and shows Brews transcribed from the original 1881 census. Care is to be taken in accepting this information as being 100% correct as, for example, my own ancestors in Kent did not appear on the Kent Census Surname Index, but upon checking the originals I found them and realised they had not been transcribed. Use this is a reference, but always check the originals.
I have used the following abbreviations:
