Terry Welch 1/23/99
From the 1881 Canadian Census in Weymouth, Digby, Nova Scotia we learned that Frances Welch,22married Byron Brooks, 28, Ship Carpenter, and they had a daughter, Helen Aug. Brooks, age 5.
Frances Jane (Welch) Brooks died on September 22, 1931 in Gloucester, Massachusetts, and is buried at Beechbrook Cemetary. A Gloucester newspaper article stated "She leaves three daughters, Mrs. Helen A. Harty, Mrs. Daisy B. McDonald, and Mrs. E. Blanche, wife of Samual J. Somers, and one son, Howard L. Brooks, all of this city."
