Dear Marlys, Do you know if this Brooks family is related to Morris Brooks (1841-1908) who m. Mary Elizabeth MERRILL 13 Apr 1862 in Waushara Co., WI? They moved to Wood Co. in 1874 and lived near Pittsville. Morris' parents were Alfred BROOKS and Deborah HASKINS. Morris also had a brother named Charles. Morris was b. in Chautaugua Co., NY and died near Pittsville. The names are very similar at least for Alfred and Charles, so there might be a connection.

Reply to Martha: What I have just listed is all the male Brooks married in Wood County that were registered from the beginning through 1920. My line is through the Brooks who married Ada May McKercher. If you want more info, contact me at nothergrandma@charter.net Marlys
