    Thomas BROOK

    Male C.1667 [ESTIMATED] - Yes, date unknown


    Personal Information    |    PDF

    • Name Thomas BROOK 
      Born C.1667 [ESTIMATED] 
      Gender Male 
      Died Yes, date unknown 
      Notes 
      • In 1719 Thomas Brooke a Freeholder of Baildon:

        to enclose 40 acres of the commons of Baildon, in such places as they shall think fit, and when enclosed, they shall convey the same to Trustees. The persons above mentioned are to have the right of nomination to the Chapel.

        Also mentioned as a Trustee:
        Thomas Brooke who I presume is this one...
        James Brooke

        Other dates mentioned:
        1723 Thomas Brook
        1723 James Brook

        see notes for Richard also:
        First Parish Records noted for Baildon & Otley I have seen so far for Brook and Brooke is from 1723.

        Via DNA we know descendants from Baildon have a link to Richard Brooks found in Manchester - see Woburn & Concord branches.

        We also know other descendants of this larger group are found in the Dewsbury area....

        I am tryinng to see if BINGLEY & GUIESLEY Brook can be linked to these.
