Historique
This is probably the William Brooke (1662-1737) of St John Square, Clerkenwell, who became a director of the South Sea Company in 1721. His brother (possibly Richard Brooke, who was the master of the ship "Reswick" which William Brooke used often) moved to Bermuda. At his death his fortune was estimated at £80,000. He left one daughter who married William Forester of Dothill, Shropshire. The majority of his estate was bequeathed to his grandson, Brooke Forester.
