| BIRTH | William was born circa 1629[6] |
| DEATH | He died in 1694; he was 65[5,6]. |
| RESIDENCE | William was a resident of Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[14]. |
| POSSIBLE FAMILY | By extrapolating information in Torrey, it is possible that William is a son or a brother of Henry BROOKINGS who married a woman about whom we know nothing on the Isle of Shoals, Rockingham co., NH by 1629 or by 1641. If they married in 1629, William is likely a son. If they married in 1641, William is likely a brother of Henry. This is not yet supported by solid facts and should not yet be cited as anything more than the speculation it is. |
| ESTATE | Administration on his estate was granted on 26 November 1694[5]. |
| MARRIAGE | Before 1660 he married Mary WALFORD[1,2], daughter of Thomas WALFORD and Jane [surname not known], in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13]. Robert Anderson says that they married "by about 1659". All five of their daughters were still living in 1703[5]. After 1695 when Mary was 61, she second married William WALKER[1], in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[3,6,15,9,16,17]. |
