"abbybowman" Thank you for listing these records. I have found several people listed in two previous postings. My family, the Cook's, who settled in the Bendersville area and were members of Menallen Friends Meeting first arrived in Adams Co. about 1820. Jesse Cook (1801-1855) in 1838 bought "Hewitt's Mill" a mile north of Bendersville, on Opposum Creek, in the foothills of South Mountain in Menallen twsp, afterward known as "Cook's Mill." Jesse was a stationmaster on the underground railroad, with stories of runaways hiding in the hills all around the mill. A daughter of Jesse (& Ruth McMillan) was Sarah A. Cook (1844-1937), the mother of Albert Cook Myers (1874-1960). Sarah A. Cook and her sister, after many disappointments, finally found a ride, "in an open spring wagon," to Gettysburg, Nov. 19, 1863, where they met and heard Pres. Lincoln give his address. <A HREF="http://showcase.netins.net/web/creative/lincoln/news/recollect.htm">http://showcase.netins.net/web/creative/lincoln/news/recollect.htm</A> Keep it up.
