I visited Goole in September 2008 in search of information on the families of Bernard Knowles Brook and his son Matthew Moorhouse Brook, who was my grandfather. I obtained important but tragic news about Bernard and his accidental drowning at Keadby in July 1876. I was unable to find out much about Matthew after the birth of my mother and uncle in Goole in the early 1900s.
I should like to know what happened to Matthew after 1905. My grandmother and my mother and uncle must have moved to Cheshire soon after then, where the children went to school in Chester before eventually working at Port Sunlight.
Any news on Matthew and his fate would be most welcome.
