Anne Jane Brooks

[lisingreece]

I am searching info on above and all I have on her is her marriage to Thomas Henry Pace in 1919 St Luke West Norwood. In it a Samuel Brooks is her father and is a coachman. She dies in 1961 and seems was born in 1891.
Samuel Brooks another Sam Brooks maybe or the same one marries in 1889 Emma Mary Barker and they have 3 children 2 boys and a girl, the little girl Emma Violet dies. This is recorded in the 1911, 3 children 2 alive 1 dead. So please can someone help me figure where Anna Jane fits in this family if at all. I also have found an Emma Brooks in the workhouse for 3 weeks in 1909. I cannot find a birth for Anne Jane brooks with a Samuel as a father in the London area.
Quite complicated. I'd be grateful for help
thank you

There is this Samuel a coachman Family in 1911

It appears, although I’ve only looked at one child, that Alice was née CURTIS.
However the marriage in Frome might be to Alice Mary PAYNE.
If so Ann Jane might be a PAYNE. (Or a CURTIS)

Thank you too Giggsy, this looks good, I'll check it out.

I presumed that both Samuel Brooks's were the same man.

Here's hoping it's finally sorted
thanks

Cannot find the birth record yet but this might help?

Anne J Pace 14/4/1892
Arthur J Pace 13/12/13 -  Carpenter & Joiner
Anne R 2/11/15 – Shorthand Typist

yes ColC, that's exactly where I am at, I cannot find her birth either.

Sid Pace was her only son and is with us no longer.

I am struggling with Anne Jane Brooks born in Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lancs. The trouble is so far none of these match with her stated birth date on her death cert. The Leicester A J Brooks matches beautifully with a father Samuel as a coachman.

Oh dear, I keep at it and am grateful for your help
Thanks
