Tolbert was my Grandfather's half brother. Tolbert was widower in 1900, wife Emeline appears to have died between 1887 and the 1900 census. The 1900 census shows two children born after the 1880 census, that would be Grover born abt 1883 and Eugene born abt 1887. Next house to Tolbert in 1900 is his Aunt, Jane Bowman Brooks, with three grandchildren that are probably children of James L Brooks who was killed in a gun accident a few months earlier. Also, on this 1900 census page is Richard Brooks, son of Jane. Gene Martin Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
