Dear Tom,
It is my understanding that this is true as follows: I will personally see
my family bible soon to be sure.
Peter Cook m Elinor Norman
Thomas Cook m Mary Underwood
Thomas Cook jr. m Mary Mills
Thomas Cook 111 m Mary Shelley
James S. Cook m Eunice Hunt.
I do not have a copy or have seen the will that you have. I am also unsure
of James middle name. Can you send me a copy of the will or lead me where I
can get a copy?
Thanks,
Candy
