Periodical for the interchange of genealogical data and history of the Brooks (and variant spellings) families who came mainly from England, Ireland, Russia, and Scotland. Some allied families came from Czechoslovakia and elsewhere. Some were adopted into the Brooks family, and some were African American slaves who took on the Brooks surname. In the 1600s, some ancestors immigrated to Antigua, Bermuda, Barbados, Jamaica, and St. Christopher (West Indies), and to Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. In the 1700s, some settled in Quebec (Canada), and in Connecticut, Georgia, Kentucky, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, South Carolina, and Tennessee. During the 1800s, some moved to Nova Scotia and Ontario (Canada), Australia, the Azores, Mexico, South Africa, and to Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Texas, Vermont, Washington D.C., West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Later descendants also lived in British Columbia (Canada), New Zealand, and in Alaska, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Nevada, South Dakota, Washington, and elsewhere.
