Lee, I would be very interested if you can find a Robert Hooker who was born about 1815 in Indiana and married Rachel McGuire. I haven't seen anyone who is researching this family besides myself, I sure hope someone out there is. I get bits and pieces on other members of the family but not Robert himself. I sure would appreciate a lookup on him when you look at the Hooker book. Thank You in advance.
