Our Founder Jabez Jeffery Brook, whose picture is on the left, had 5 children with  his wife Emma Henrietta.  Four branches remain active, as their 1st daughter, Rhoda  Adeline, died without any children.  These Branches are Harley McSpadden Brook,  Jeffrey Jabez Brook, Niles Winfield Brook, and Mae Belle Brook Stearns.  That is why  the Family Tree is named "Brook-Stearns".

The purpose of this site is to provide the Founder's decendents with the knowledge of  their forefathers, as well as their living blood relatives.  The Family Tree includes  the Brook, Stearns, McSpadden, Kimball, and many more surnames.

Please note that only the living members of the "The Brook/Stearns Family Address  List" will know the access Code, which will permit them to see details on the living  people in this tree.  Those without the access code will perhaps be able to help us  with more information on our ancestors.

For each of the four branches, there will be a desigated administrator to assist me  in making this Family Tree the best and most complete possible.

I hope you will enjoy the site, and I thank you for your your contributions.
