Am once again posting my Cooks. Have been able to go back past James' wife Frances Emily Sterling but nothing on his side. Based on naming conventions, it's possible his mother's maiden name was Robb. I have no idea who his parents were, where he was born nor where he died. His wife died in 1855 & is buried in Hill View Cemetery, LaGrange, GA, but he is not. Anyone researching this Cook line: JAMES ROBB COOK b 5/14/1811, m.
