Hi all,
I've been looking into another of my family lines, the Brook family of Heathfield. I have traced as far back as 1809, when George Brook (abt 1774 - 1828) married Judith Prior (1786 - 1833) on 30 March that year. However, I cannot seem to trace the Brook name back any further.
I have found a baptism record for a George Brook being baptised on 21 Nov. 1773 in Warbleton - parents John and Sarah. I don't know if it's a match for "my" George Brook, though, but it's the most likely out of the potential matches I found on FindMyPast. I also can't locate a marriage record for a John Brook marrying a Sarah in that location and time period.
Also, sometimes the family are listed as having the surname "Brooks", which I have also checked.
If anyone could help me trace the Brook(s) name even further back, I would appreciate it massively!
Thanks in advance,
Jack
