Hi Sterico ,
A look on the 1841 census shows only an Elizabeth Jane Brooks abt 1834 Liverpool nothing else comes near.
Sorry.
Jane

There is only one marriage for Thomas Brook(e) to a "Jane" in the IGI between 1815 & 1835 in Liverpool- might be worth more investigation...

Hello Sterico,

Having had a quick exploration for Elizabeth (not yet her marriage or subsequent family); hope the following is of interest and relevant to your BROOKS Family:

(Possibly the above two Catherine Brooks are widowed mother and her daughter – just a guess)

Hi
Just looking thru the thread and noticed u have the name of Brooks.....so have I......awaiting certificates from GRO which I only ordered today for my maternal grandparents........grandfathers name RANKIN......grandmothers name MIDDLETON........I have done quite extensive search already over the last couple of weeks following my grandmothers maiden name and other female lines......i've gone from MIDDLETON to BARHAM to BROOKS......the entry I have is a marriage entry for Sarah Elizabeth BROOKS born in West Ham, London in the June quarter of 1865......the man she married is Oldthen or Oldthan BARHAM.....the Vol is 4a Page 31......I have looked thru some other stuff which I'd have to re-find (as at that point I got brain overload and shut pc down without saving, but it cant b to hard to find again) It mentioned something about a place called Middleton.....I have come to a stop with Oldthen BARHAM.....I think I may have to order a birth cert for him to continue and i STILL cant find any origin for his forename
Would b great if we could share any info and c if there is any link
