I had a bad connection. James Hascue Brooks was the son of John David Brooks. John was married to Charity Burton Osborne Trent b. 1832 (another ancestor of mine). Charity was the daughter of James Burton Osborne who was a baby when his father died. His mother married William D. Trent, Sr. and later in life James started going by the name Trent. James Burton Osborne (1795-1866) was the son of William Osborne (1773-1796) and Charity Burton (1773-1820) all three of these people were born in Grayson County, VA. I appreciate the information you posted. It was a great help. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
