Person:Sarah McBANE (1)

Jesse and Prudence with children John C and Prudence. 1810 Jesse Cook in Guilford Co NC with a wife (26/45) probably Pheba (10-15) and 4 other children. By this time John C and Prudence were already married and therefore out of the house. The will of Sarah Cranor seems to indicate that her daughter Prudence wife of Jesse Cook was dead. The census indicates that Jesse has remarried and has started another family with his 2nd wife. 1830 Jesse Cook in Rush Co., In He is 70-80 years old and his wife is 50-60. They have 1 male5-10 yrs old 1840 Jesse Cook in Rush Co., Washington Twp In. He is 80-90 years old and his wife is 60-70. They have 1 m 15-20 1850 Sarah Cook in Rush Co., Jackson Twp In She is 70 years old and was born in Va. She is a resident of the insane asylum of Rush Co. (Her age corresponds to the previous census records and the land records indicate that Jesse Cook's wife was named Sarah. Their property was located near John C Cook's property and that of his sons William and Joash. I therefore conclude that the Jesse and Sarah Cook indicated in the above census records and land rec ords are the father and stepmother of John C Cook Prudence Cook Manlove McConkey and Pheba Gillam.
