My grandmother, Maude Brooker, was born Jan 28, 1899 at The Alma, Galley
Hill, Swanscombe. Her fathers name was "Walter Charles Brooker", and her
Mother's name was Mary Ann Brooker - the certificate lists father's
occupation as Beerhouse Keeper. By 1901, the family is now running the
Plough, Stonebridge Road,
Northfleet, rather than his father in 1891. ***
Charles Brooker, the father of Walter Charles is at the
Plough in 1891, the
Hope, Creek in 1881, and at the
Rose, Wood Street in 1871 ***
