      Notes 
      • Charles Brinker Brooks: on his death certificate states David Brooks is his father and his mother is Elizabeth Whipkey.

        1870 Census we see David & Elizabeth in PA age 22 born c.1848.

        Daniel Brooks was born c.1839.
        There is an obituary which clearly states he was married to Mrs Elizabeth Brinker.
        When Elizabeth dies her Obituary states: Her son was Charles B Brooks.
        Death Certificate for Elizabeth Brooks states her husband was Daniel Brooks.

        Suggestions are: Elizabeth 1st Married David Brooks he died after Charles Brinker Brooks was born.
        Elizabeth then marries John Brinker and Charles has taken his Surname for a while [then seen as Charles Brinker Brooks].
        After John Brinker dies Elizabeth then marries Daniel Brooks hence the documentation.
