John brooke" target="_blank">Brooke Johnson brooke" target="_blank">Brooke (born John brooke" target="_blank">Brooke Johnson, 1823 – 1 December 1868) was a soldier and Rajah Muda (heir apparent) of the Raj of Sarawak until disinherited in favour of his younger brother, Charles.
He was born in South Stoke near Bath, to Francis Charles Johnson, a clergyman and Emma Frances brooke" target="_blank">Brooke, an elder sister of James brooke" target="_blank">Brooke. James took John on a long cruise around the Mediterranean in 1837 in his yacht, Royalist. John then joined the British Army’s 88th Foot as an ensign in 1839, and became a lieutenant in 1842, and captain in 1848.
Captain brooke" target="_blank">Brooke, his preferred name by then, left the 88th Foot in 1848, but did not resign his commission.

Captain brooke" target="_blank">Brooke adopted the surname of brooke" target="_blank">Brooke on 23 May 1848 by Royal concession, and went to join his uncle in Sarawak as Rajah Muda, taking effective charge of the country when James returned to England. He spent some time in Labuan at first as James was establishing himself as its first governor, but was subsequently based in Kuching. He has been largely ignored in the standard historical accounts of Sarawak, but substantial records survive which show how active he was, and his engagement with pirates in the Battle off Mukah in 1862 has attracted interest.

They went to live in Kuching where they had two sons, Basil (1857–1860), and John Charles Evelyn Hope (1858–1934), but Anne died shortly after Hope's birth. brooke" target="_blank">Brooke's second marriage was to Juliana Caroline Welstead: they had met in England and married in Singapore in 1861; Julia died a year later giving birth to a daughter, Matilda Agnes (1862–1943).
