Brooks

Dear  brooks75

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I have had a look on rootsireland.ie but there doesn?t seem to be any baptism record for Daniel or Richard or any marriage of a Richard Brooks. It may be the case that the boys were born in a parish and at a time that predates the parish records.

There are 9 Brooks entries in the Griffith?s Valuation (1847-1864) but it would be difficult to which, if any are your ancestors:

As you mentioned Antrim I also checked the Flax Growers? List but there are no Brooks entries:

Have you tried searching Ancestry.com for any mention of your ancestor?s name in member family trees or messages? 

Let us know if you learn anything new

Best wishes
