All the mid-west Hookers are a mix of the descednats of Joseph Hooker of MA whose line went to NY then across the mid-west to Oregon. There was even one Geramn family in thata area who changed their name's spelling to Hooker upon arriveal from Germany in the mid-1800s! Some mid-west (IN, IL, OH) Hookers were from TN and were from Wm I 's NC/VA line (from Wilson Co.,TN) and some from the Smith Co.,TN line (who were from SC and ultimately from Granville Co., NC as Paul just posted). Even some from Robert Hooker, b c 1786 in NC/TN Hooker's line (of the 6 brothers), went into OH and IN from Henderson and hopkins Co.,KY!!! So there is no one answer to where they "came from" - one must look at the censuses at where the oldest known ones were born and trace back as we all are doing!!
