Ron : I have had no luck tracing this Cook line further back than *John Henry Cook. He was born , October 12, 1839 Stokes County North Carolina, and died September 12, 1927 in Lawrence County Kentucky , he and Winnie were on The 1870 Lee County Virginia census and were married October 04, 1859, in **Stokes County North Carolina. In 2003, The Sons of Confederate Veterans dedicated a Confederate Stone for John in The Laurel Cemetery in Lawrence. Sure would like to find the key to this locked door some day !

Hello, I'm just reading through..............still looking for my Daniel Cook (from England to Maryland.) You are correct. The names do repeat. I suppose that I have given up on him for awhile. Maybe a streak of luck will come along one day. However, when I saw DNA, I thought of this in relation to another line. I am attempting to connect myself to a Davis gggrandmother. Can someone answer this? Does the DNA work if a female does it in an effort to connect back to another female. For instance, the gggrandmother? I just do not believe that I have heard or read of a female doing the test..... ...But, I am rather new in this research. RobbiePurser@aol.com
Carolyn the reason I'm answering this is because I'm researching the Cooks. Thomas James Cook Born Nov.8th 1819 Green County Pa In his descendents there is a Betty Ann Deil who married a Harold Adkins they had son Dean and Dean had 3 girls one was Carolyn Adkins is this your family.If so i would very much like to talk to you.

Good point Elnora. Can't do my line because the male to male chain was broken but I'll contact a SC researcher who may know a John & Sarah Cook male descendant to do it.

I'm always watching for you Gloria! Although researchers in SC 'think' James is mine because of the proximity of his land, Chesney's Journal, written in 1779, doesn't mention James as being one of John & Sarah's children, but then Chesney wrote it after many years of his coming into SC in 1772, fighting with the Brits & being exiled back to Ireland. Last summer I actually held 'the' Journal in my grubby little hands, PRONI archives folks brought it out to me, absolutely breathtakingly beautiful handwriting in ink! I was looking for a "PS.

Hey Wallace Earl Cook in Madison! Glad to meet you. Your Jessie is too young for me. I am looking for Mary Cook who married Thomas Donaldson ca 1792 probably in Abbeville, SC. I think she was born ca 1750 - just guessing. It seems every family in that age range had a daughter named Mary, so I cannot track down my girl. Funny thing, Cooks seems to be thick as fleas!!!
