I have two Abraham Cook's The elder one born abt. 1715 in Southhampton, LI NY. He
married Sibyl Burnett in 1740 in Southhampton NY. He died in Hampton, Morris Co. NJ. His
son was Stephen Cook born aft. 1741, married 1st, Sarah Havens, born 1753, 2nd married
Phebe (widow of Amos Halsey). The son of Stephen Cook and Sarah Havens was also Abraham
Cook, born Feb. 3, 1775 who married Mary Lyon abt. 1800 in Elizabethtown, NJ. He migrated
into Greene County, Ohio abt. 1818 with all his children, Mary Lyon died about 1818 in NJ.
Stephens & Sarah also had a son, James Cook who is my ancestor. I do not know all of
the children of the Elder, Abraham Cook or where he came from but thought that since both
families migrated to the mid west there might have been some relation. Thanks John Cook
