Mary Brooks 1899
« on: Wednesday 01 April 15 21:45 BST (UK) »
Can anyone help my search for any information as  to what happened to a Mary Brooks born about 1899, the daughter of a George Brooks. I believe they came from the Huddlesfield area. Unfortunately I have no more information on either.

How does she link in to your family?
There may be clues there? ;D

Hi Buckden

Where does your information come from? A letter? A marriage witness? Somebody's bridesmaid? A relative's recollections? Was she a friend? Somebody's first wife?.  Is it possible the name has been misremembered?  Could she have used another forename? Do you think she could have emigrated?

Any little clue might help.
