Re: Wanted Brooks Family Members
Hi,
I am also researching the African-American Brooks family
of Ballard County, Kentucky. I am descended from Minor
Brooks(b.1871). He was Frank Brooks'(b.1868) brother. I
think his son Herman(Howard?) Brooks(b.1903) in St. Clair
County, IL. is my Grandfather. He married Viola Freeman
(b.1906) in Illinois in 1921. I know little about her
except that she is descended from Richmond Freeman
(b.1794)in Virginia. Their son(my Father) Delois Brooks
(b.1928) in East St. Louis, IL. is also a mystery to
me. Any help would be appreciated.
God Bless,
KennyB
