From source - about Matthewman Brook and his wife Mary Hannah
They had 6 children altogether, Arthur was the last, I'm not sure of his birth date but he died in 1957. Harry Brook (born 1887ish)was my great grandfather and he married Elsie Hodgkinson. They had one son, William Matthewman, my grandfather, born in 1917, he was named after the other William Matthewman, Harry's brother, who died the same year in Flanders. Elsie also died in 1917.

Matthewman married Mary Hannah COUSEN, daughter of John Isaac COUSEN and Fanny EARNSHAW, circa Sep 1883 in Huddersfield, Yorkshire, England. (Mary Hannah COUSEN was born circa Dec 1860 in Almondbury, Yorkshire, England.)
