Biography

S. Brooks is listed among the makers active in Boston around 1850, one of several (along with L. Matt, J. Munroe, and Daniel Morris) who aimed mainly at providing a popular-priced instrument. As with most of this group, the text gives no further biographical detail beyond the shared characterization of their business aim.
