Hi folks, I am a fairly new List-er and love the way it runs - all so friendly and helpful - and I hope someone might be able to help me with the following: I am researching my BROOKE roots in Cheshire in the early 1700s. (Difficult as the name seems indiscriminately spelled Brook/Brooke/Brooks/Brookes.) Does anyone have any of the following people in their tree? Most of the information comes from Ancestry and the IGI with no other corroboration as yet. John BROOKS, married Esther/Hester Horton 17 Nov 1734 at Gt Budworth. (She was baptised there 17 July 1712.) They had son John baptised at Weaverham 17 Sep 1735; married Martha Woodward 20 Sep 1754 at Frodsham. daughter Martha baptised at Weaverham 6 Nov 1737. I'm looking for any information on these people (or any relatives obviously), particularly the birth/baptism and anything more on John senior. Happy hunting in your own research, Judith Mooney (nee Brooke)
