Hi, My grandmother was a Cook from Fall River, MA. Her Cook family is from the Portsmouth, Little Compton, RI and Fall River, MA area. Do you have any Cook's from that area? She connects to the Brayton's, Bordens, Remington, and others in that area.

I have inquired before, but since the list is so active, I thought I would try again!! My grandfather's name was William Cook born 26 Oct 1922 around Danville, IL. He died in August 1972 in Clinton, IN. According to his marriage license, his father was also a William, but I can't read the middle initial. The only thing that I know about his father was that he died when my grandfather was very young. I am told that he was burned in a gas truck accident. My mother tells me that when my grandfather's father died, his wife married a gentleman by the name of HOLD. Both my grandfather and his mother are buried in Clinton, IN. My grandfather had a sister named Betty who married a Blackburn and lived in Terre Haute, IN. If anyone has any info, photos, or contact that might be able to help me out, that would be great!!!

We are looking for the parents of Daniel Cook who came with his wife, Martha Norwood Cook, from sC to Wilcox County, AL. They built beautiful Cook Hill (near Camden, in Possum Bend). Daniel and Martha arrived around 1807. Could this James Cook be connected? Is there a book on James or perhaps a diary? Robbie Cook Purser RobbiePurser@aol.com

John Miller COOK and Elizabeth (Lizzie) RANDOLPH were married in July 1884. and lived in the Tallahassee, FL. John was a Civil Engineer and worked on the construction of roads during 1880 - 1890s in the Tallahassee area and may have continued his work into Alabama. John was born in 1850 in Beech Island, SC (across the Savannah River from Augusta, GA) and Lizzie was born ca. 1885 in Tallahassee, FL. Can anyone place John and Lizzie in Alabama?

My gg grandfather ISAAC COOK was born Abt. 1836 in Ohio, and died Bef. 1870. He married ELIZABETH KIRK 08 Oct 1857 in Belmont County, Ohio. She was born Mar 1837 in Ohio. Obituary of William H. Cook (son)- Cozad [Nebraska] Local Tuesday May 30, 1933 Page 9. "Parents Mr. & Mrs. Isaac Cook were Quaker. Family of four sons who along with father preceded him in death. William at an early age moved to West Branch, Iowa & became member of Methodist church." Since his parents, Isaac Cook and Elizabeth Kirk were Quakers I wanted to post in case someone is familiar with the Quakers of Belmont County, OH.

Hi all, I meant to say in my last e-mail posting, Mary-Gene's William Cook born in 1769 not 1869, sorry! God bless, Beth

Hi Mary-Gene, I was wondering since your William Cook was born about 1869 instead of being John's son perhaps he was abrother? A William Cook is listed on the Mecklenburg tax lists in the 1790's , so that William would have to be a grown man over 21. Now, our John Cook, Sr. was born about 1760 so it is very possible he may have had a brother born in 1769. God bless, Beth ---------------- Hi Mary-Gene, I have been working on this family for years and I had William's name and wife, etc. before we ever wrote to each other. William was listed in records related to this family. For instance, he was along with John and other Cooks listed in the estate accounts and sales for Herbert Cook his brother. There are other records of Mecklenburg County which list William as being connected to this Cook family. I do genealogy research for myself and for some years now for others too and I have been going through tons of records for various families at the Library of Virginia for many years since they were in the old building so I am pretty well acquainted with doing genealogy searching.

Dodson AND Groom: William Knight Bride: Ann Cook Bond Date: Dec 12, 1799 County: Stokes, North Carolina Bondsman: George Cook Witness: H. B.

There is a *"Phoebe wife of John Cook* "buried in the Presbyterian church yard there, *dying* at age 25y on *16 May1775*. By the time she dies they have 4 children that we know of. David b. 1768 - 1775 Ann b. 1768- 1775 Mary ( Polly) b. 30 Mar 1775 Jemima Cook b. 1768- 1775. 2nd wife documented in Morristown Presby Church Mabel Johnson b. 1758 Hanover dau. of Alexander and Lois (Gregory)Johnson they had 6 children Phebe b. 27 Nov 1778 William b. ? Samuel Gregory b. 1781 Sarah b. 1788 John C. b. 1790 Timothy H. b. 1793 I was thinking perhaps they had come from a different religous affiliation than Presby. The children do not show up in the church records of Hanover, Morristown, or Parsippany. Maybe Quaker. I am searching. Does any of this fit anywhere.

My George Cook was born in 1760 in Lancaster Co, PA. He died in Larimer Twp, Somerset Co, PA in 1850. Here is the story of this George Cook: "Among Our Pioneers: A Genealogical Record of the Cook Family", Written by J. Harry Fritz, of Somerset, Pennsylvania under date of January 3rd, 1896. It came from a newspaper - probably in Somerset Co, PA. George Cook was born in the northwestern part of what was then Lancaster county, near Harrisburg, Jan. 10, 1760. He moved to Allegany County, Maryland a mile southeast of the present town of Wellersburg, this state.
