27 Oct 1758, a Frederick Co. Court Martial ordered a TB of Capt. Isaac Parkins' company to be fined 20 shillings for missing two musters in the past month (see Amelia C. Gilreath, abs. and comp., FREDERICK COUNTY, VIRGINIA, DEED BOOKS 17 AND 18, 1775-1780, PLUS EARLY TROOP RECORDS, 1755-1761 [14200 Vint Hill Rd., Nokesville, VA 22123; 1993], p. 192). Quaker refusing military service?
Richard BROOKE's witnessed the will of Mary Blacknall's brother, Charles BLACKNALL's, father-in-law, George HARDIN in 1744 Middlesex Co., VA. I believe Richard Brookes is the brother of Thomas BROOKS, husband of Mary Blacknall.

The other Thomas Brooks lived and died in Burlington County, NJ and had a wife Mary and daughter Esther Sharp, daughter Sarah Austin, daughter Lucy Brooks, etc.. I'm disconnecting Esther and rebuilding Thomas of New Jersey's profile.
I would change the locations on this profile to represent the Virginia man.
