Will look up what I can find in the portion I have - it appears a Wm Hooker came from Eng in 1657 to VA - later he or his descendants moved into NC/Chowan Co. There was a Wm Hooker II living in Bertie Co in 1756 when he wrote a will leaving much of his estate to his daughter Sarah Hooker who married Nicholas Askew around that time.
There there is a booklet called descendants of Wm I by Brainard Hooker in 1939 Supposedly that is in the state library in Nashville. and another "Hooker, Harrison, and RElated Famiies" by Robert K Hooker also in Nashville state library.
This paper I have states Wm Hooker(I)?? had a will proved in court in Oct 1717 (in the Dept of Archives and Hist., Raleigh, NCHe had a daughter named Jane(married a Brown?).
I will keep looking. Write me at [email protected].
