Edwin Jackson Brooks was born in Lennoxville, Quebec, in 1949. He and his twin brother Edward arrived in July, 1882 and chose land just west of Indian Head, only to be told that the land had already been reserved by the Qu'Appelle Valley Company (Bell Farm). He later chose land north of Indian Head (Wide Awake District). He became a prominent citizen and merchant in Indian Head. In 1885, he was selected to serve on the jury for the trial of Louis Riel.

Brora Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, part of Regina Presbytery and consisting of Brora, Tregarva and Rose Plain appointments. Balgonie joined the charge around 1965 and both Brora and Balgonie points moved to Regina St. Aidan's Pastoral Charge by 1970. Brora Pastoral Charge was re-established around 1973, with ministry supplied from Regina Rosemont.

The charge was officially closed on June 28, 2015.
