I see that I already have his CD he so kindly sent it to me a few years ago. Glad that you found the information on Anson. You are related to Cooks then. Wonder if that mystery about President Benjamin Harrison will ever be solved. There seems to be no concrete evidence. I know my Mother thought for sure her family was related to him. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Katherine Chester" <kjachester@bellsouth.net> To: <ncwataug@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2008 9:20 AM Subject: Re: [NCWATAUG] A most asked question >I am actually in Hudson, Caldwell County.
