Brooks-21195 and Brooks-12216 appear to represent the same person because: It didn't come up when I created the profile, sorry.

This William BROOKS may be the William BROOKS who died 4 Jan 1720 at Christ Church, Middlesex County, Virginia. It is highly unusual if he lived to be 93.

This William Brooke was NOT the son of Robert Brooke. Brooke-1507 was. Further, they are not very likely the same person.

A son of Robert Brooke could not have been born in 1663 since Robert was born about that time! Further, Robert's son William did not marry Ann Caldwell. Further, William did not have a son William M. Brooks. This association is incorrect!
