I am searching for a COOK/KOCH progenitor in America of our Cook Family . A GEORG or CHARLES COOK or KOCH b ca 1832 came to the Pittsburgh, PA area sometime before 1860 and was working as a carpenter in the villages of Tarentum and Natrona in the Allegheny River Valley, Allegheny Co, PA when his son: Charles Alexander COOK was born 1862 Charles may have brothers George, Christian and Henry. He certainly has a sister CARRIE, Caroline COOK who married a Charles APPLEBY of NY and Tarentum, PA. On some census from 1870 - 1920 Charles and Carrie say their father was born in HESSE and some say he was born in BAYERN. Another William COOK of Tarentum was b HESSE-CASSEL but I do not know if he is connected. Also, the GEORGE COOK on the 1870 census who appears to be the one I am seeking is married to a Barbara KALLENBAUGH b HESSE dau of a Margaret and Deadrick KALLENBAUGH/CALLENBAUGH. Do you have any suggestions to help me find this ggrandfather ? Helen Cook Austin Decatur, AL AustinART@aol.com
