Note on Child 9: Elisha Rooks
Elisha is a bit of a mystery. I can trace no death.
At 1861 census was an AB seaman on board HMS Caesar, a 91 gun wooden screw ship-of-the-line under Capt Thomas Henry Mason. At the time of the census it was on station in the Med, and we know from the log it was moored off Corfu.
