  • Notes 
    • Michael Godfrey Brookman is the American Patriarch of the Brookman/Bruckman Family. It is most likely not a possibility to find his parentage and with all my central New York Dutch and Palentine Families I have not tried. Maybe someday if I find information or have nothing to do I might look to see if parentage could be found but until then I am perfectly fine this the concept that Michael is the beginning and where the family starts.
