A few weeks ago, I engaged in a message board discussion about Jeremiah Brooks. I have a Jeremiah Brooks from Caswell Co., NC in my files. JackieSBrooks has a Jeremiah Brooks from Person Co., NC in her files. We shared information and determined that these were probably two different Jeremiah Brooks’.
I updated my Jeremiah Brooks.doc file today with information I learned from our message board discussion posts. Although their Jeremiah moved to Person Co., NC, some of his descendants, including Jackie’s husband, ended up in AR as well as my Brooks family.

Hey,
My great great gma was Mary Susan Brooks d of SG Brooks and I think linking back to Jeremiah. All in area of Orange/Person Co. NC. We know nothing about our Brooks family. I am just looking for info about them. We have a family cemetery plot in Person where she and her husband William H. Anderson are buried. There are some other undecipherable graves also if I remember correctly. I grew up in Orange Co., but I live in S. Fl now and it is impossible for me to immerse myself into this stuff from here. Thank you for posting your work and findings.
