I am trying to establish who the parents and siblings of George Brook were and where he was born. According to the 1841 census he was a resident of Wooldale Nr. Holmfirth and his age then was 55 so he would have been born around 1786, possibly somewhere in the Holme Valley/Kirkburton area of Yorkshire.He died between 1841 and 1851 and his wife was called Hannah but I don't know her maiden surname,she was born in Holmfirth.George and Hannah had the following children; Elliot, Emor,Henry, Andrew,Caleb and Philis all of whom were born in Wooldale.
