  • Notes 
    • Obit of Joseph H. Brooke "Streator (IL) Times" 9 May 1945 -- This person lived in Streator, IL in 1945 and was md. to Chester Salvati -- Name may have been "Adelia" though it usually appears as "Delia" -- Marriage record to Chester Salvati gave Delia's birth place as Wilmington, IL -- Delia stated she was a widow at time of the 1940 La Salle Co., IL Census; I wonder if they actually divorced
