    2. S Gallup
    3. sometime ago some one told me about a family genealogy book that was done on Daniel Cook My Daniel Cook was born in New Brunswick in the late 1700 or the early 1800. Traveled to Salt Lake City with the Mormons in the middle of the 1800. He had a daughter Lydia Cook who married Luke William Gallup. Can any one connect and tell me the name of the family book and the author again. Thank you Sharon

    1. Re: [COOK] JOHN COOK TO US 1757
    2. Do you have anything in your research on a Daniel Cook from England?. Supposedly, he settled in Maryland then went to Virginia. I have no dates. The wife came with him, but no name on her. A son, born in Maryland, married Feebe (Phoebe) Mastin of Virginia (again, no dates.) Their son, Daniel Cook (Rev. War), m. Ruth Moultrie. (I regret.....no dates.) Daniel Cook and Ruth Moultrie's son, (another) Daniel Cook, 1799-1878), (War of 1812,) Chesterfield Dist., SC, m. Martha Warren Norwood, (1799-1840) dau. of (Capt) John and Mary Warren Dubose Norwood on Jan. 28, 1818, Darlington, SC. They settled in GA for awhile before coming to Possum Bend, near Camden, AL (Wilcox County) where they built beautful Cook Hill which continues to be occupied by Cooks, and is on tour from time to time. Nearby is the Cook Hill Family Cemetery in which Daniel and Martha and several generations of Cooks are interred. Any info will be appreciated. Robbie Cook Purser RobbiePurser@aol.com

    1. [COOK] COOK FAMILY INFORMATION including a Daniel
    2. Carolyn Adkins
    3. * * *I live in Mansfield Ohio, Richland County, I believe I've trampled through nearly every cemetery here, and I can't begin to tell you how many Cook families lived and died here. Some were from PA, VA, WV, and many other places. The Mansfield Cemetery's oldest graves are of the Cook and McCoy families. [Of course their not mine ] * *I've been following all the Cook postings and finally decided to send the following information, I found at Ohio Richland County web site. There's lots more at the site, Hoping this may be helpful to another researcher.* *Carolyn * *http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohrichla/BiographyShelf/C.htm <http://www.rootsweb.com/%7Eohrichla/BiographyShelf/C.htm>* *Cook Family* -- Wm. Cook and Daniel Cook, brothers, came from Washington county, Pa., in the spring of 1815, and settled, Wm. on the farm one mile west of Lexington now owned by James Chambers, and Daniel on the farm two and half miles southwest from Mansfield, on the Lexington road. They put in crops, and in the fall went after their families. The two families, with Jabez Cook's family, all came out in one wagon with a five-horse team. Wm. Cook remained on this farm until February, 1817, when he traded with Ichabod Clark, one-half mile south of Lexington. While living on the Chambers place Wm. Cook was sadly troubled with bears. They devoured his hogs in the woods. He therefore took up the life of a hunter. Game of all kinds was abundant, and multitudes of deer, turkeys, raccoons fell a prey. The bears soon quit troubling him. Bee-trees were frequently found, so that with but little trouble the table was most sumptuously supplied. He went up to Jerry Bowers' farm, several miles north, and procured some tallow from an ox he had the misfortune to lose, and mixing it with raccoon oil and beeswax, indulged in the then great extravagance of candles. Had to go thirty miles into Knox county for all breadstuffs and for any other than wild meat. Wolf trapping, by means of log pens, and a cover fixed so that when the wolf jumped into the pen after the bait the cover fell, was generally indulged in. In 1819 he lost his barn by fire. The fire from a clearing got into a dry tree and was blown from that to the barn, causing the loss of nearly all his grain. He lost a horse by the burning of a tree on a neighbor's farm. The horse got into the field and stood around the fire until the tree fell. Fodder being very scarce, one spring he cut trees for brousin? his cattle, and one morning accidentally fell a tree upon his best cow. The Indian trail from Sandusky south led them through his vicinity, and their calls at this house with cranberries for sale were frequent. They were always ????. There was a grist-mill and sawmill at Lexington, which was a regularly laid-out village when he came. There was no church at Lexington for many years. Meeting was held by all denominations in school houses, private houses, and in groves -- God's first temples. Frequently preaching was held at the house of Noah Cook; one-half mile from Lexington, on the farm now owned by Thomas Cook. In 1831 he sold the farm bought of Clark and bought another three miles southwest of Mansfield, on what is known as the "Gass road," where he lived un 1855, when he moved to Mansfield. He married Eunice Corwin on October 28, 1813. There were thirteen children -- all living (in 1857) in robust health. Their names were: Hannah, Samuel, Stephen, Elsa, Asenath, Sarah, William P., Eunice, Catherine, Julia Ann, Eleanora, Isabel Martha and Mary E. Cook. Wm. Black married Hannah in 1832 and settled on J.H. Cook's farm, Madison township, O. Samuel married Catharine J. Brown in 1839 and settled in Allen county, O. Stephen married Miss Amanda Mitchell in 1839 and settled in Allen county, O. Aaron Brown married Aseneth in 1842; at the old homestead. Robert Beattie married Elisa in 1849; on Lexington road, three miles southwest. John H. Richie married Eunice 1850 and moved to Farmington, Vanburen County, Iowa. Wm. P. married Eleanor Craig in 1853; on J.H. Cook's farm. Catharine married Samuel Cockley in 1833 and moved to Farmington, Vanburen county, Iowa. Samuel Cook married Belle M. Cook in 1854 and settled in Morrow county. Submitted by Elizabeth. [THE OHIO LIBERAL: 04 June 1873]

    2. I surely hope that you can help. We do not know the name of the "first" Daniel Cook's wife. (References are of him as the "English -born father" of Abram Cook.) I must learn to scan so that I may send info as printed on pages Our first known Cook ancestor was the above mentioned Daniel Cook whose wife's name we do not know. He came from England (do not know name of ship), but Abram Cook, son of Daniel Cook, m. Feebe (Phoebe) Mastin of Virginia. Abram Cook was born in Maryland. (The Daniel Cook, born in England, who as Abram Cook's father, had moved his family from Maryland to Virginia.) Abram Cook and Feebe (Phoebe Mastin Cook) had a son, Daniel Cook who m. a Ruth Moultrie. This Daniel Cook served in the Revolutionary War. Daniel Cook and Ruth Moultrie Cook had a son, another Daniel Cook. This Daniel Cook (1795-1878) married Martha Warren Norwood, dau. of (Capt.) John and Mary Warren Dubose Norwood. Daniel Cook and Martha Warren Norwood, m. Jan. 28, 1818.This Daniel Cook served in the War of 1812. Daniel Cook and Martha Warren Norwood Cook had a son, Samuel Calvin Cook (born 1837), who m. Mary Harrell Gullett Cook. Samuel Calvin Cook (my grandfather) served in the War Between the States. I don't believe that there is a typo in these dates. (I have done that before!) I wish that I had MORE dates; however, if you think that you have one of these lines, I can go other places to get more dates for comparison. Please let me know. I DO HOPE that you can help me.

    2. Robbie please repeat your Daniel's information so I can see if he is in my information The Elisha that I have married to Hannah Bigelow doesn't have a Daniel or John as brother Elisha was one of 7 children (the only son) of Elisha and Anna (Raymond) Cook. Elisha and Anna had Anne, Elisha, Phena, Olive, Olive, Sula and Clara The father Elisha was son of John and Hannah (Loomis) Cook John Jr was son Of John and Sarah (Fiske) Cook John Jr had a brother and a sister Theophilus and Sarah. I descend through Theophilus. John Sr is son of Nathaniel and Lydia (Vore) Cooke - some of the founders of Windsor Ct I have 6 Daniel Cooks - maybe I have your info. What was your Daniel's wife's name? What time period? Kim

    2. I am not certain that I connect with Elisha. Does he have a brother John or Daniel Cook? Please let me know anything that you learn about Elisha and possibly a wife, Hannah Bigelow. I have some Bigelows. I BELIEVE that they are through a Warren connection. I am very interested in Elisha for a wonder whether he could connect through my Daniel.

    3. Looking for information on my grandfather John E. Cook. I don't have a birth date or location, but probably around 1880, maybe from the midwest. I believe his father was William A. Cook, (no dates). and his mother was Sarilda Jeanette Moffitt, born around 1860 in Buffalo Ford, Randolf, NC. daughter of Adam Urban Moffitt and Nancy Cheek. This has been a real brick wall!

    2. Trouble is, she is not a Cook any longer. They divorced sometime in the late 40s to 50s I'm guessing. My second cousin, who I discovered in this search knows her address and won't share it. She had a few photos, but would only copy them on a Xerox, I can't even put those in my Family Tree program, they just look like ghosts. She writes to me, but ignores my requests. So I look for the one son whose name I know, that being Randy.

    2. OK, I'm going to take another stab here to see if I can find these Cooks. Randy Cook, son of Charles Clyde Cook Jr. and Beverly Ulman was married to Rena, (may still be) had twins Drew and Adrianna. I am also looking for Bevely Blair Ulman-Cook. She divorced Charles Jr. and went back to Nebraska, remarried. Charles Jr. has passed away. I'm NOT a Cook researcher, but an Arthur researcher. I lurk here hoping that the Cook family I seek might go looking for thier people. I am desperate to find pictures of Clyde' Sr s wife Mary Jane Arthur and any that may have been passed down to them. If any of you out there know this family would you please have them make contact with me? D Leonard
