Herbert,
Thanks so much for the information. My ancestry comes from Peter, Peter,
Thomas, Thomas, Thomas, James, William, Ernest Cook.
I am lost when it comes to James. I know he was in Indiana, Richmond but I
can find barely any records.
Nellie is Willams daughter. I do know William went from Indiana to Iowa and
died in 1909. Could you tell me if there is any Burton's in this book?
Williams wife was Minnie Bell Burton and her parents were William Blair
Burton and Louisa Eleanor Johnson. They are a road block also.
Thanks so much.
Candy
