Would there be anyone on this list that can trace their Cooke famly back to the late 1700's at Eaton Brae? During the late1700's a Joseph, Thomas or William Cooke (and maybe others) sailed across the pond to early Nova Scotia and New England. I need to find the link between the two countries. A male cousin donated his DNA to FamilyTreeDNA.com and in the Cook family section of that webpage we are identified along with Mayflower descendants and early Virginia descendant Mordecai Cooke. This DNA result for our ancestor Richard Cooke B1810, can be seen in that Cook group as 'I2b - Lineage 1'. I am hoping to find some other Bedfordshire Cooke family whose DNA may match ours. Any help or suggestions would be so appreciated. Barb (Cooke) Meredith in Alberta, Canada
