James was a very common name for the COOKs. Another problem is in the 18th century, there were two COOK families in Dublin and Sampson Counties, NC that I have not been able to connect. However, I have data on a James Cook that may fit. 1. James Cook, Jr. (abt 1770-aft 1802) + ?? 2. Son?? Cook + Christain (1815 NC-??) 3. M.T. 3. Flora 3. Narcisa 3. McNorton 3. L. 2. Young Braswell Cook (2/25/1802 Bladen (now Columbus) County, NC-9/2/1869 Columbus County, NC) (more on my webpage) Maybe there was another son? See the genealogy link on my web page at http://cookes.us .

Hi Ron, There is nothing on him in that a volume set. I did find the Will of a Thomas Henderson of Union County, SC dated 16 May 1794 listing children: Elizabeth, Dolly, Fanny Word, Cisley, Nancy, Nathaniel, William and Judy Hall.

Hi Jeff and Cindy, I do not sell books (unfortunately, I "buy"). I checked all the Bladen Cemetery books and the Sampson County Cemetery books but didn't find either of the two full names that you gave me. I will be glad to look for any names that you are looking for but since Lib Turner's recent death I cannot give you a contact name/email in Bladen for purchasing the cemetery books. There is an office supply store in Elizabethtown that sells all the publications but, again, I don't have a contact for you.
