Charles was the son of Ambrose Brookmire and Maria Fidelia Henry Corey. Ambrose was the son of Benjamin and Ruth Tanner Corey both of NY State.
3 Nov 1928 he married Maxine Ella Jane Meacham in Flagstaff, AZ. Maxine was the daughter of Lee and Bernice Peterson Mecham, both born UT.
Charles and Maxine's marriage was blessed with 6 children,3 sons, Charles, Steven and David, and 3 daughters, Faye, Dorothy and Joyce.
Charles was a veteran of WWII serving with the U.S. Marine Corps. He took a medical discharge caused by injuries.
He was a long-time resident of Durango, CO.
He leaves behind 16 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren.
There is a question presented as to correct middle name of Charles. A relative, George from MA has provided a copy of Charles' birth certificate that lists his middle name as Harry. While his obituary from Durango CO lists his middle name as Henry. I would sooner believe the birth certificate than the information in his obituary.
