Henry Brooks

Along with William Scott and William Coulthard, Brooks set out on a journey in 1858. They were seeking farming country north of Spencer Gulf. They were unable to find water and the party separated. This resulted in the death of Coulthard, but Brooks and Scott were saved when they met up with Benjamin Babbage's exploration party.
