Much of what I currently have on these two families is in the Family Folder page of the Armstrong County GenWeb site. Unfortunately, I have no idea where either of them lived in Donegal County. Also, it may be a lot of fun trying to find the parents of these fellows named William Hall and William Cook. Almost like searching Smith. If your people came to the US after 1800 and you have not searched the Philadelphis passenger list index, you might want to do that. I found some good information in there. You might find other family members that came over with your people.
