I am searching for information about J.W. Cook (my gg grandfather) who was born abt 1816 in Tennessee and was found living in Jackson County, Alabama in 185- and 1860. He most likely died abt 1865. There is a J.W. Cook in the 1840 Federal Census for Weakley County, Tennessee. This J.W. Cook lived next to a Willis Cook. I would like to find out if the J.W. Cook in Weakley County, Tn in 1840 is my J.W. Cook in Jackson County, Alabama. If so, who was Willis Cook and his ancestorage? Can some one please help me? Gene Key Dallas, Tx.
