John & Dolly (Parker) Cook settled on the NY side of the Delaware River at what would become Colchester, Delaware Co, NY. Their children as I've found them: Rebecca b 1780 m Frederick MILLER Jr Sarah/Sally b 1782 m Stephen FISHER Joseph b 1786 m Eleanor CARRIER Prudence b 1790 m John McKINNEY Catherine b 1792 m Solomon BAXTER Daniel b 1795 m Polina/Polly COLE So. No Elisha *that I know of*, and here's 'my' Daniel. John's brother Robert had sons Jonas/Jonah/James, Enoch, Jeptha, Caleb born about 1792-1808.
