Warren Josephus Cook
Posted by: James Cook Date: April 13, 1998 at 10:46:47
  of 2471

I am looking for the father and mother of Warren Josephus Cook b. Jan. 27, 1838, d. April 24, 1901. Any help would be appreciated. Father possibly a David and mother possibly Sara. Warren was named after his grandfather. Have no other info on Warren’s parents or grandparents. Any info would be appreaciated.

The first evidence I can find of Warren Josephus Cook is on the 1860 census.

Columbia Township # 88-82
Warren J. Cook 22 PA day labor
Clarissa 23 OH
William 3 OH
Clarinda 1 OH

He married Clarissa Wood 21 Aug 1856, none of the 1850 census Cook's were from Pa.
1870 shows him in Columbia Township # 5-5
Warren J Cook 31 OH Farmer that's the state the census copy says:

Calrissa 33 OH
Willaim 13 OH
Clarinda 11 OH
Elias 9 OH
Robert 7 OH
James 5 OH
Jane 3 OH
1880 has his birth state in Pa again See below:
156-157
Warren J. Cook 40 PA PA PA farmer
Clarissa 43 OH OH OH
Clarinda 21 OH PA OH
Elias 19 same
Robert C. 17 same
James T. 15 same
Zilpha E. J. 13 same named after Clarissa's mom
Carrie E 11 same
Jackson A 9 same
Mary M. C. 5 same
Samuel C. 2 same
Viola V 3/12 same
Charles Peck grandson 2 OH

The oldest son William married Goble, Marhta J. 30 Nov 1878.
I'd assume Clarinda married a Peck but I can't find it in the marriage book for Meigs county.

On the 1900 census only Samuel and Viola are living with their parents. The census states the parents have been married 43 yrs had 12 children , only 11 of which are living. Warren J still says he's from PA.
Beaver Co, PA or Allegheny. There was alot of migration between theses areas.

Given the conflicting Birth states, I'll check 1850 again. Can't find a 12 year old Warren J. or any Warren J. I did find Clarissa with her parents on the 1850 census:
Columbia Township # 1256-1256

William Wood 47 OH famer
Cilpha 35 OH
Elias 18 OH
Clarissa 16 OH
Angeline 14 OH
Anna 12 OH
Dorcus 10 OH
Elizabeth 8 OH
Adam 4 OH
Hepsabe 4/12 OH
