I was wondering what his connection was....

1911: 2 Swan Street, Stourbridge, Worcestershire
David Brooks 58 Head Machine Clerk (Fire Clay Manf) Oldswinford, Worc
Rhoda M Brooks 52 Wife Stourbridge - married 20 yrs - children 3/1/2
Miriam A Brooks 13 Dau Lye

Ah! Look who i've found already on BCC
David and Eunice are brother and sister

https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =491499842

wait a min...

according to her marriage details to William R Hill, it says - Eunice Maria BROOKS age 20 spinster Netherton parish George Brooks Miner not Joseph

What's that all about? Could it be that her father is actually Joseph George Brooks just like her other brother?

I've added so far - https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =188839791

Thanks for that RF

I can't make it all out, can you Mumbles?

May be George is just a mistake? It all points to Joseph as father and mother as Miriam/Myra.
