comment: Hello Marquette,

I love your website. It's an obvious labor of love. My father, Moses Cook, who passed in 1996, was the son of Albert Cook, one of the Cook brothers. My aunts are Velma and Sarah. I am so looking forward to connecting with the family and learning more about my people. I and my wife live in the Chicago South Suburbs and hope to meet you at next years re-union.

Thanks Al Cook

Good Morning!

I am a descendant of Albert Cook; my name is Nancy Jean Hills.  My Grandfather was Moses Cook, father of Libby Jean Hills.  Just wanted to add myself and my mom to the Birthday list.  I love the family website.  It holds so much history.  Thank you
