Biographical Details
In 1778 John Brewer announced that he had entered into partnership with Edward Holl, who had for several years conducted the business of the late Robert Page of Norwich. Brewer and Holl advertised that they executed monuments and tombs in the modern taste and gave their address as the Yard, Beccles, Suffolk. The partnership was dissolved in 1789, when it was announced that Holl would continue the business alone.
