Tryphena Margaret Brooks died on 31 March 1948 at Moweaqua, Shelby Co., IL, at age 88 OBITUARY - Find-A-Grave:
Tryphena Brooks, daughter of Josiah Wright Brooks, a native of Georgia, and Martha Damarias Selby, a native of Kentucky, was born February 29, 1860, on a farm near Moweaqua, Illinois. Her father and mother were members of the Moweaqua Methodist Church, to which they took their children and in which they took an active part.
Her father died when she was 14 years old, and she and her brothers and sisters early learned to take the responsibilities of the home in helping their mother to provide a living and care for the family. Tryphena loved housework, gardening, nursing, and millinery.
She married James Stewart, a native of Pennsylvania and a former soldier in the 76th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry. They operated the Round Grove Farm, three miles east of Moweaqua, Illinois and to them was born four children, James Franklin, Malcolm Wayne, Eltha, and Charles Leslie. James died on February 3, 1895 and in 1899, she moved to Moweaqua. In 1903, she wed Martin Duncan, father of her daughter in-law Gwendolyn.
She was a member of the Order of the Eastern Star of Moweaqua and of the Shelby County (Kuilka) chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Friendships in Moweaqua, Shelbyville, Saint Louis, and Urbana were important in her life.
For nearly a year in her failing health she lived with her daughter-in-law Gwendolin Stewart in Moweaqua and with her grandson and his wife, Wayne and Vera Stewart of Monticello.

M, b. 27 March 1860, d. 11 September 1951
William James Brooks was born on 27 March 1860 at Maine per censuses and California death index. 1900 census listing for William and Lizzie Brooks appears to have been a "fiction fest" -- he deducted 9 years from his true age, and Lizzie added 10 to hers, thereby closing most of the 21-year gap in their ages. In 1920, 1930, and 1940, William reported his true age (59, 70, and 80, respectively).1
He lived in 1892 at Mendocino Co., CA, age 27, per California voter registration record (ancestry.com.) He lived on 14 June 1900 at Ten Mile River, Mendocino Co., CA, brakeman (railroad), age 31, wife Lizzie E., children Claude J., 4, and Mamie S., 2.1 He married Nora Rachel Gillmore, daughter of Ephriam Bradley Gillmore and Mary Emily Hunt, on 26 February 1909 at the home of her parents, Texas Co., OK, ceremony by Rev. K. McNier. William was first married to Elizabeth "Lizzie" Ella Croghan (1881-1902) on 29 AUG 1894 at Eureka, Humboldt County, California, and had a son Claude James Brooks (1896-1981) and a daughter Mamie "May" (1898-1979) who married Austin Taylor in 1917 and lived at Mill Valley. May later remarried to Alfred Gunnell.
