    1. [VAALBEMA-L] Looking for BROOKS, ALLEY, MINTER
    2. Hi, I am looking for relatives of my both of my Grandfathers - (1)Lacy Murray BROOKS b. 02/22/1892 d. 07/04/1935. He was the son of Joshua Cyrus BROOKS b. 02/21/1861 d. 12/06/1927 and Alice Susan FORBUSH b. 05/27/1859 d. 03/21/1910. Other siblings were: Nettie(Nellie), Hersey Ellen, Lula, Martin Luther, Sandy A., Findley Carl, James, Maggie, Lillian F., and Carrie Mae. On Dec. 24, 1913 Lacy married May Lily "Maymie" ALLEY b. 07/04/1894 d. 07/21/1971 daug. of John Henry ALLEY and Margaret "Maggie" Catharine EAVEY. (2) Believe it or not, my other Grandfather's name was Harrison (Horace?) BROOKS (I don't think they're any kin.) b. 08/30/1869 d. around 1922(?). He worked as a Cooper. I've heard he was married 3 times but that is all about all I know about him. Anything anyone can tell me about him would be greatly appreciated. His third wife, my Grandmother, was Josephine MINTER b. 08/1888 d. 05/25/1973 daug. of Thomas "Jack" MINTER and Susan Ann KERBY (KIRBY?) of Albemarle Co. I've heard there may be some Indian ancestry on this side of the family. Thanks for any help. Janice
