Crawfordsville Daily Journal 22 March 1901 -- Rachel S. Cook, widow of CD Cook, an old resident of Sugar Creek Twp, died at he rhome yesterday evening, after a long illness of a complication of diseases, aged 99 years. She was a woman well and favorably known and respected by all. The funeral services occur at the house tomorrow at 2 p.m. conducted by Rev. Crowder. Burial at Rice Cemetery.

Some cooperative detective work by Lena and me solved the mystery woman's identity: She's Rachel Rice Cook Cook, daughter of John Milton Rice (1796-1851), b. Ohio, and Rachel Simpkins(1800-1854). When Lena found both Charles W. Cook and Rachel Cook under one stone in the Rice Cemetery, and Christian D. Cook also there, it should have been our first clue. Lena says that all the citizens of Rice Cemetery are somehow related. But one typo remains -- Rachel seems to have been 69, not 99, at her death. Now we wonder, were Charles and Christian related?
