Charles Wesley Brooks was Worshipful Master of our Post Oak Island Masonic Lodge #181 in 1864, 1871, 1872, 1873, 1875 and 1876. Does anyone have a photo of him. We would like to place it on our wall of Worshipful Masters. My name is Trey Smith and me email is texian1838@yahoo.com. Thanks

Thanks for your interesting comment. I haven’t run across a picture of Charles, unfortunately. I wonder if there is a photo of Charles in the papers of his son John Lee Brooks which are, I understand, held by the library or archives of SMU. That might be a place to contact.
