Reuben H. Delay-Margaret Thomas- Mary Hercules
Inquiring about the "interesting" family historyof Reuben H. Delay b. 1834 in Ohio.Marriage 1st to Margaret Thomas in 1857, several children. Left her to marry Mary Hercules Cook in 1867, my g.g. grandmother, several more children.
Mary was married before to William P. Cook of Putnam Co. MO, but he and her father Charles Hercules were killed during the Civil War as members of the Missouri Cavalry.
William and Mary had one son before his death:George Franklin Cook,my g. grandfather,who was raised by Reuben and Mary in Downs, Kansas.QUESTIONS to all descendents or anyone else who might know.What are the death dates of Reuben and Mary Hercules-Cook, where are they buried, and does anyone have a photo and obits of these two people???I would gladly pay for a copy of such items...
