Hi, My gr-grandmother was NY Dutch, and her name was Juliza Cook, which originally was supposedly spelled Koch. She claimed to be born in 1849 in Granville, Washington County, NY, but she's not on the 1850 census. She married John J. Turner in 1865 in North Adams, Berkshire, MA, so I suspect she lied about her age and was actually born in the last half of 1850. Witness to her will in 1904 was an Oscar Cook who might be her brother. I found an Oscar D. Cook born 1842 in Granville, NY to Daniel Cook and Sarah Lee. He m. 1873 in Salem, Washington, NY Alcesta Sevia Williams. The 1850 census for Granville shows: Chester Lee, 38 Sarah Cook, 34 Oscar Cook, 6 May or Mary Cook, 4 Sarah Cook, 2 Seneca Milan [looks like], 16, farmer. I suspect that Chester Lee was Sarah's brother, and have no idea what happened to Sarah's husband Daniel Cook. If he died before the census date, Juliza could still have been born soon afterwards. I have not been able to find parents for Daniel Cook [born about 1816, the year his wife was born]. I don't know the year of emigration, either, but know there were VanderKoeks in Cooks Corner, Franklin, NY and Cohoes, Albany, NY and Vandercooks in Cooksborough, Rensselaer, NY early on. Sarah and Chester Lee may possibly have been Seneca Indians. My grandmother's name was Margaret Nathalia Turner, so I'm looking for a Nathalia Koch/Vandercook that might connect to this family. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sue Martin
