• Notes

  "[Thomas Cooke] is known to have had two wives named Mary, but it is not known whether the first Mary was his first wife, married in England and thus the mother of his first three children. She was his wife in May 1660, when she signed her mark to a deed, but she had died by March 1672/3, when the second Mary wrote a good signature on another deed. It is likely that the first Mary died about 1670, when several members of the family of Thomas(2) Cook died within a few months time." [Thomas Cooke of Rhode Island, citation details below.]
