    Notes:

    Captain Thomas Brooks (1) was the emigrant ancestor of
    Walter Frederic Brooks, of Worcester, Massachusetts,
    and a large part of the Brooks families in this
    country. It is claimed by some authority he came
    from Suffolk, England. He settled first at Water-
    town, where he had a lot assigned him in 1631. He
    was admitted a freeman December 7, 1636, but very
    soon afterward removed to Concord and settled. In
    Watertown he was one of "the townsmen then inhabiting"
    to whom the general court granted certain
    plow lands along Beaver brook in 1636.
    He was elected by the general court constable
    of Concord, December 4, 1638. He was a deputy to
    the general court seven years, representing the town
    of Concord. He was captain of the Concord company.
    He held various other offices. He was an
    assessor, or "appraiser of horses, cattle, etc., for
    the purpose of taxing." He was appointed a special
    officer to prevent drunkenness among the Indians.
    He purchased of the general court the right to carry
    on the fur trade at Concord for the sum of five
    pounds. In his day he was a leading citizen, both
    in civil affairs and in the military.
    His wife Grace died May 12, 1664. He died intestate,
    May 21, 1667. An agreement among his
    heirs on file at the probate office made June 17,
    1667, was signed by the eldest son, Joshua Brooks,
    Captain Timothy Wheeler, husband of Mary Brooks,
    Caleb Brooks and Gershom Brooks, also sons of
    Captain Thomas. The children of Captain Thomas
    Brooks were: 1. Mary, married Captain Timothy
