Hi Richard, I just found your reply to my inquiry. I have my COOK info as follows:
Milton Karl COOK (my dad) b. 23 Oct 1913 in Kalamazoo, Mi.
His father was Edgar Milton COOK, b. 13 Jul 1884 in Goshen, Ohio. His birth and death certs. give his father as Milton COOK, b. Ohio, and his mother as Jane (or Jennie) BINKLEY, also of Ohio. I found a Milton and Jennie COOK in the 1880 U.S. census, in Goshen, Ohio. This gives Milton's age (in 1880) as 51 y.o. and Jennie's age(in 1880) as 24.
In my family, the name Milton alternates as first or middle name given to first son. Do any of these people sound at all familiar?
Please contactme at Marbethwest@yahoo.com
Thanks, Marbeth
