CREDITS

  There are numerous persons, authors, groups and businesses that should be recognized for their assistance in obtaining the information you have read about the Brook family. I would encourage you to especially consider supporting one in particular with a financial donation, since the St. Helens Local History & Archives Library in St. Helens houses and preserves the most abundant collection of information regarding our family in the UK. They maintain photographs, business records, trade directories, birth & marriage records, census statistics, advertisements, election posters, newspaper articles, announcements and so much more. This office works with equipment that is in much need of updating, yet their staff are incredibly efficient, very friendly, and a wonderful bunch of accommodating people when one is researching their history. The Copyright of photographs taken by R.G. Brook are of course maintained by living members of the Brook family and those historical organizations who have original copies in their possession, however without the efforts of the fine people who located them for me to purchase, none of us would have ever been able to see them, nor even made aware of their existence.
