1415	NOTE from Brooks family website; According to his daughter, Lizzie Smith, the house now standing on that property was built by George Robert, however, she didn't know what could have happened to the first one. There is a good possiblility that he added to the original home. The slave quarters would have been to the northeast of the present house, according to Mrs. Smith. NOTE: (I'm not sure how true the above is, in his obituary it says his original house was sold while he was away during the civil war and that when he returned he worked and built a new house. It does not seem that the house he built was on the original land.) George Robert Brooks was born September 30, 1839 and died January 8, 1908 in Callaway County. He married March 14, 1878 to Martha B. Mosley in Callaway County. She was born Feb. 12, 1861 and died the 15th of November, 1910. They lived on the original home place and are buried in the family cemetery. George and Martha were the parents of: . Carrie Belle Brooks b. Mar. 29, 1879 married O. G. Powell Mary Anna Brooks b.

1416	CAPT. G. R. BROOKS DEAD Capt. George Robert Brooks, aged 68 years, a Confederate veteran and one of Callaway's most prominent farmers and stockmen, died Wednesday mmorning at his home, nine miles southwest of Fulton, after an illness of two years with kidney trouble. He had suffered greatly durning the last few mmonths, and death, which was not unexpected, came as a relief. He was buried Thursday afternoon in the family cemetary on his farm. The New Bloomfield Lodge of Masons, of which he was a member, conducted the services. The burial was attended by a large number of friends, among whom were a number of his old army comrades. Captain Brooks was born on the farm on which he died. His father, Thomas Brooks, came to Missouri from Virginia in 1818 and entered the land, and then returned Virginia for his wife and slaves, coming again to Missuori about 1821 to reside permanently. Thomas Brooks was a carpenter and it is said that he once was employed by General George Washington. He died during the childhood of Captain Brooks. Captain Brooks was in the Confederate service throughout the civil war. He enlisted first as a private in the service of the state, and at the expiration of his term of enlistment for six months he entered the service of the Confederate government. He was elected Lieutenant of Captain David Craig's Company and when Captain Craig resigned was elected Captain. His company was known as Company E., Ninth Missouri Infantry. John W. Pace of this city was a Lieutenant in the company and a majority of the enlisted men were from Callaway County, Judge W. R. Terry of Fulton, John Maloney, southeast of Fulton, Thompson Fry, of Auxvasse, and D.I. Weinscott, of Musick, were members of the company. As a soldier, Captain Brooks commanded the respect and love of all his men. He was without fear and was in the thickest of the hard fighting west of the Mississippi. One who followed him all during the war said Wednesday that Captain Brooks never commanded his men to go, but always said " Come On, Boys." He, with his company, surrendered at Shreveport, La. at the close of the war. After the Civil War, Captain Brooks returned to Callaway. It is said that he only had only fifty cents when he reached home. The old home place had been sold during the war, leaving him without property of any kind. He at once began to work and in the course of a few years was able to buy the old home place, consisting of over 300 acres, and then began inproving it, building a splendid brick house and making other extensive improvements. He engaged in the stock business and became one of the leading stallion and jack dealers of the county. He leaves a comfortable fortune. After the war he was married to Miss Belle Mosely, a daughter of William Mosely of Carrington. She, with four daughters survive him. The daughters are Mrs. W. W. Burton, Carrington, Mrs. O. G. Powell, Hams Prairie, Mrs. William Smith, New Bloomfield and Miss Cora Brooks who lives at home. One brother, Lorenzo Brooks, who has lived with him at the old homestead also survives. Captain Brooks was a man of high honor and integrity; a genial, kindly, charitable neighbor, and a useful citizen. He will be missed by the community in which he lived, and mourned by every person who had the privilege of knowning him intimately.	George Robert Brooks

1441	I think he might have been a son of Robert Brooks, grandson of James Brooks Sr. Robert died about 1850, and is buried in same cemetery as Robert F. Brooks wife, and on 1850 census, There are many headstones missing or unreadable in the cemetery, his father could be buried there also. Proximity of graves also links him to Robert Brooks. In 1850 at age 4, he was living with Permelia Bullard family. The neighbors were, George Gray family, Robert Holt family, Abner Holt family, Elizabeth Brooks (widow of James), and Tylman Vaughan. All relatives. Permelia was the widow of John M. Bullard, her maiden name was Barger. Her sister, Harriet Barger, was the wife of John D. Holt, brother of Robert Holt, both deceased. Permelia Bullard was Robert F. Holt's Aunt. 1880; Census Place: Cedar, Callaway, Missouri; Roll: T9_677 Name: Robbert F.

1444	Theophilus Brooks was born November 8, 1829 in Callaway County. He died July 10, 1864 and is buried in the Brooks Cemetery on the home farm. No records have been found to indicate that he ever married. He evidently lived on the farm until his death. He participated in matters of the estates of both parents. The only other thing known about him is a matter of record when he took the Oath of Allegiance to the U.S. of A., March 21, 1862. At that time, his three brothers were part of the Confederate Missouri Guard and they still had slaves on the farm. 1860 Slave Census Callaway County, Round Prairie Township Slave Owner, Brooks, Theophilus Trust/minor heirs # of Slaves Age Sex Color 1 29 f b 1 24 m b 1 16 m mu 1 25 m b 1 9 f b 1 4 f b 1 1 f b 1 18 m b 3 15 m b 2 13 f b 2 11 f b 3 9 m b 2 7 f b 3 4 f b 1 3 f b 1 1 m b 2 18 f b # slave houses 5	Theophilus Brooks

1448	Thomas Richard Brooks Dead An Early-Day Citizen of Callaway County Passes Away at Carrington Home Friday. Thomas Richard Brooks, 72 years old, died at 1:00 o'clock Friday morning, at his home in Carrington, after a long illness, having been in poor health for about three years. His death, which had been expected by the family for about a month, was due to heart trouble. Funeral services were held Saturday morning, in the Carrington Baptist church, conducted by the Rev. I.M. Turnage, of Mokane, assisted by the Rev. E.M. Harris, of Fulton, and burial was in the cemetery of that church. Mr. Brooks was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Brooks, and was born on a farm near New Bloomfield. He was a resident of Callaway county all his life. Fifty-one years ago last June he was married to Miss Nancy Elizabeth Holt. Sometime after their marriage the couple moved to a farm east of Carrington, where they lived until about ten years ago, when they moved to Carrington, and Mr. Brooks engaged in the merchandise business for several years. He was a charter member of the Carrington Baptist church and was always one of its most liberal contributors. In the days before a church building was erected and worship was held in the school house at Carrington, Mr. Brooks took an active part in the activities of the church. His wife is also a charter member of the church. Besides his wife, Mr. Brooks is survived by three children: Mrs. J.H. Emmons, Fulton; William C., Sedalia and Ashley T. Brooks, who, since his return from service in the army last July, has made his home with his parents. One brother, W.T. Brooks, of Hatton, also is living. Mr. Brooks was one of Callaway's upright, intelligent and respected citizens. In the Carrington community and church, in which he had lived and worked for so many years, he will be greatly missed. Friends of the family in Fulton and the county extend sympathy to the family who sorrow in their bereavement.	Thomas Richard Brooks
