      Notes 
      • In the 1851 Census George states he is from Gisburn in Yorkshire however by 1861 he states Huddersfield. There is a Gisbourne Road in Huddersfield in the Bradley Area.

        I have checked the transcribed parish records for the village of Gisburn and there is no record of a George Brooks the records i have stop at 1812.
