Suggested edit: Hello! I found that William Jackson Brooks' third wife Martha E. Knight's maiden name was Hancock. Her parents were John Paul Hancock and Sarah Squire. Her sister Harriet E. Hancock Gardner Teal was the Mrs. H. E. Teal where Martha and William's wedding took place. If Martha's name is correct on the record for her marriage to William, she must have married a Knight some time between 1880 and 1899.
