My ancestors are Brooks also, Daniel we know was born in Mass., and eventually settled in Dummer Vermont (or Guilford). Aaron deeded him 12 acres after he married his second wife, Polly Presson, daughter of Samuel Presson. She was from New Hampshire. We know there were a number of sons by Daniel's first wife, name is under contention, but some believe it was either Roxanne or Rosanne. Daniel Jr. George, James maybe more, with Polly there was Bartemus, Jehiel, and Polly or Mary. Daniel Sr. fought in the F and I war, was with Ethan Allen (we had a set of pistols however a former husband absconded with them when his wife passed away), and also fought in the Revolution. Daniel Jr. also fought with the Green Mtn boys, but was captured and taken to Canada (the prison was a cave). At this point we don't know what the relationship to Aaron is. I believe they migrated to Connecticut, Daniel and the older boys are listed in the 1810 census for Haddem Ct. That would be about the end of Dan Sr. life time. Help would be appreciated.
