Hi Joan, what's your source? I'll ignore it if it is on my CDs as the info has been already conveyed, thanks to you.

Martha- The 2 baptisms at the Lutheran Church in York where the father is John COOK are: Moses COOK, son of John COOK and Elizabeth born Dec. 3, 1761 and baptized Jan. 24, 1762. The sponsors are not listed and neither is the maiden name for Elizabeth. Christine COOK of John and Dorothy, born July 22, 1763 and baptized September 11, 1763. >From the Quaker Warrington Monthly Meeting records there is a Joseph COOK and wife Mary (she died 15 day, 12th month, 1759 aged 29 years): John COOK born 9th day, 3rd month, 1758. This Joseph COOK married second to Elizabeth and had a daughter Sarah COOK born 7th month, 7th day, 1767. >From the private register of Rev. Robert CATHCART we have the marriage of an Elizabeth COOK to Wm. WRAY on April 22, 1794. Rev. CATHCART was a Presbyterian minister...which you thought your COOKs might be. The Warrington Monthly Meeting records also include the marriage record for the above Joseph COOK and Elizabeth WILKINSON, widow of Joseph WILKINSON, decd. on May 23, 1764. She was from Paxton (which was then in Lancaster County--later Dauphin). He was from Warrington Township, York County and is the son of Peter COOK and wife Sarah. There are also a bunch of York County will abstracts for various COOKs which mostly appear to be the Warrington Township Quaker COOKs. In this area you will find Scotch-Irish COOKs, Swedish COOKs (Cox/Cock) and possibly Germans COOKs also (originally Göch). Joan In a message dated 12/29/2011 4:31:15 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, marthadavis1@mindspring.com writes: Joan, John Cook may be my John Jr. - he was a Loyalist in the Rev War & fled to Ireland but his request for reimbursement from the Brits for property losses didn't give names of a wife or children - can you give me info for both Elizabeth & Dorothy or tell me where to find it. No, my Cooks weren't Quaker, they were Protestant. Thank you much and I will check with the York Heritage Trust.
