Hi I think Isaac Brooks father is John Brooks b1777c who married Janet Hutchison (from family search.org)
One of Isaac and Helen's children was Janet Hutchison Brooks b 20 Oct 1856 Falkirk.
John Brooks and Janet Hutchison had three other children that I can find
John b 1797
Helen b 1802 ? Not sure about this date
Hugh b 24 May1802 Again not sure if I read this correctly
There are so many Brooks in Dunbar and Dysart then Barrhead
Also look for David Hutchison married Elizabeth Amos in 1771 in Humbie, Eat Lothian
Alexander Amos married Margaret Gerdon(Jardon) who had two children
Elizabeth b 9 July 1743
Elizabeth b 2 Sept 1746 both Haddington

Family history on the net at two in the morning is just the best lol

I had a look at relationship between Janet Hutchison and David Hutchison/Elizabeth Amos. It looks like from familysearch that the Janet Hutchison married to John Brooks was born 1779/1780, however the Janet Hutchison born to David and Elizabeth was born 1772, so not certain they are the same. I'll do some more digging.

Thanks
