Roy,
I know this listing is a few years old, but I would like to correspond with you regarding this family.I am just starting out on this line, but I know that I am connected through Robert H. Cook, son of Thomas Cook and an unknown wife.Robert H. Cook would have been the brother to your Lizzie.He married Hannah Bernice? Rushing, daughter of Peter Rushing and both Robert and Hannah are buried in the Peter Rushing cemetery.Robert's son, Ambrose Phillip Valentine Cook was the father of Otho Cook who married Maggie Lee Barrow - they were my great grandparents on my Dad's side (his Mom's parents).
Also, I have always heard through family that the Cook or Rushing side had Cherokee Indian in them.....I have seen an old picture of Hannah Rushing Cook and she looks like an indian to me.Have you ever heard this?
