Hi I'm new to this list. I've recently discovered that a large group of my Cook family relatives emigrated to Pennsylvania during the 1850's and 1860's from Gloucestershire, England. They were coal miners and set up homes in the Northumberland and Schuylkill counties of Pennsylvania, although they also seem to have spent a brief time in Ohio. Is anyone out there a descendant or relative of Samuel and Jennet Cook, or Joseph and Hannah Elizabeth Cook of Schuylkill, or Sampson and Mary Cook of Shamokin? Can anyone out there point me in the right direction to start finding records of their marriages? I can find scraps of a Pennsylvania Marriage Index on the web but it comes up fairly blank for Cook? Any help would be appreciated. regards Judith Upton Portishead, Bristol, England
