Very interested in knowing more about your Alice Brooks birthdate/place and parents. One of my offshoots, William Riley Brooks (June 1829 Cocke Co, TN)had a daughter Alive V. (1860 Cocke Co, TN) and they were in Van Buren, Shelby Co, IN

I have several Brooks ancestors who moved away to Indiana from Cocke Co, TN. My grandmother being one. She didn't move until about 1930, though. Still, she lived in Brookeville since before I was born in 1954. They also lived in Libery, (Union Co), Connersville (Fayette Co) and Rushville (Rush Co) by 1866 when their youngest son, Archie was born. Could this be your Alice? She may have stayed behind in IN when the family moved on to MO.

Some of my older Brooks ancestors:
1870 Van Buren Twnshp, Shelby Co, IN, but moved family to Keytesville, Chariton Co, MO for the 1880 census:

William Riley Brooks (June 1829 Cocke Co, TN) and wife Sarah "Sally" Greene (1830 TN)
Children:
Eugene A. (1856 Cocke Co, TN)
Lafayette (1857 Cocke Co, TN)
Angelo B (1858 Cocke Co, TN)
Alice V (1860 Cocke Co, TN)
Derrick (1862 Cocke Co, TN)
Josiah Andrew (1864 Cocke Co, TN)
Archie (1866 IN)

1870 - Clay Twnship, Hamilton Co, IN
1880 - Big Springs, Boone Co, IN

Warren (1832 TN) and Eveline (1836 NC) Brooks:
Children were:
George W. (1856 Cocke Co, TN)
Martha A. E. (1857 Cocke Co, TN)
Sarah E. (1858 Cocke Co, TN)
Minie (1865 Clay, Hamilton Co, IN)
Emma (1867 Clay, Hamilton Co, IN)
William (1873 Big Sprgins, Boone Co, IN)

Hope this helps and maybe we can connect further back.
