      Notes 
      • It is thought that Edwin is the Illigitimate son of Rose Brooks ? no father is listed on his birth certificate. However William is still alive - DNA testing hopefully may answer this question.

        Edwin adds William Spiller Brooks as his father [the family tell me Edwin did not know about his birth certificate until he was 84 years old [1984]].
