History
This Insurance Agency was first founded by Walter D. Bailey in 1928. Walter sold insurance out of his home in Howard County. Later Walter transferred his business to his son-in-law; Munson P. Brewster. And Munson opened an office in Burlington, Indiana.
Munson’s son Walter E. Brewster joined his father in the agency in 1951. Then in 1958 the agency was incorporated as Brewster Insurance Agency, Inc.After Munson’s death, Walter (Ed) ran the agency on his own for many years. In 1969 Ed was honored by the Indiana Farmers Mutual Insurance Company as that year’s “Agent of the Year.” Through the years Nina Brewster worked in the agency as an assistant to her son Ed and owned an interest in the agency. Gene Matthews joined the agency in 1974. Ed & Gene became partners in 1975 and were partners in the agency for 20 years.
