Cook, Benjamin

Birth Name Cook, Benjamin
Gender male
Age at Death 75 years, 8 months, 17 days

Narrative

Benjamin & his wife was supposed to have emigrated to America & had 10 children.
My family tree says he married Mary Hopper but it doesn't say when.
The I.G.I. says that Benjamin married Mary Klopper on 22/11/1807 at Holton Hall.
Your records say he married Mary Klopher ???
Records on Ancestry.com say Benjamin died 9 Jul 1858 & Mary died 18 Sep 1858.
On the 1881 Census of Smallbridge in Lancashire Margaret Hannah Cook age 58yrs is living with Robert Keningale Cook & is described as "Cousin" & born in London Canada ??
The only problem is if Dr. John K.Cook died in 1885, aged 86yrs = he would have to be born in 1799, before his parents were married.
