Hi, just found your site. My mother was Lucille Brooks,her afther was frank brooks from Cattarungus Cty, Little Valley area. farnks mother was a Drew. Now in my research, iwas told that Brooks and Drews were cousins, not uncommon at that time. Francillia Drew spent a;ot of time in Dunkirk, and several of her kids were born there. The family story is that the family has a hospital in dunkirk ( Brooks Memorial).I ve been trying to tie the families together, even visited Dinkirk and the hospital last june. contacted the hostorial society and just got a wad of not really helpful paper.
