Sydney Brookes (1898) parents
Following on from this I can see Joseph and Mary were married 27 years in 1911
I've worked it out to be 1884 or there abouts
Help please I can't find the marriage year or what church if any so I can ask for marriage info look up

Thanks
Mandy

I see that Sidney/Sydney is missing from that 1901 census on BCC...

James Brooks 39
Mary E Brooks 30
Alfred Brooks 17
Sarah A Brooks 9
Sidney Brooks 6
Arthur Brooks 2

I've just added him in Mandy :wink:

Looking at the age difference between Alfred and Sarah A, it's poss that James was prev married, perhaps to another Mary?

1911 census says married 27 years that would make it around the right time 1st son was born.
Seems odd a long gap though.
