      • Notes: Researchers link Catherine Melvina Brooks to Archibald Brooks c.1810 Kentucky yet on her Death Certificate father is listed as Archie Brooks from England. ?
        1880 Census she does state both parents were born in KY.
      Notes 
      • I have always had a problem with this.
        On Catherine's death certificate it states Archie Brooks was born in England ?

        There is no AT DNA evidence that actually links descendants of Catherine to BROOKS family's in Kentucky ? that I am aware of.

        However when we research the census for Archibald Brooks and Rosella Null Census does show he was born in Kentucky.
