| BIFR1976 shows John as father of Jonas of Antigua (had issue) with it being a bit unclear whether it was John or Jonas who was father of Elizabeth (m. Peter Brooke). BLG1886 (Brooke of Mere) shows Elizabeth as dau/heir of Jonas of Antigua. Thanks to a contributor (CV, 15.06.13) for drawing our attention to 'The History of the Island of Antigua' (see below) where Elizabeth is shown as dau/coheir of Jonas of Antigua son of Jonas son of John son of Jonas. The dates make it seem unlikely that that last Jonas was the son of this John. Accordingly, we now show the Antiguan line separately below. | |||||||||||||||
