Hello Cookies! >>>...I had come to the conclusion there was no Cooks in the So... :-) Yes, we're here! I know it can be frustrating, though. I'm still looking for Joshua Cook b. 1805 in GA and m. 1827 in MS or KY (yeah...looking for that, too). >>>...The name Wm. is just not a run of the mill name for so many of the Cook-L members I have two Williams listed, though neither yours (sorry). There is the posibility that the two are one in the same. In case anyone else is looking, I have: 1) WILLIAM A. COOKS PVT- B- POW at Camp Morton, IN 22 Jun 1863 2) WILLIAM COOK b. 1846 in Holmes Co. MS, son of Joshua and Susanna Cook Good luck! Jo-Ann Stephens
