Hey, Martha. You are really after your Cook ancestor and I hope you find him soon. Please don't forget while you are searching in SC for a Mary who may have married my Thomas Donaldson. Donaldson lived in Abbeville, but I don't know where he found his Mary Cook! Always good to see your name on the rootsweb.

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. Oh Yeah, James, too!"
