There is no record of the death of Thomas Cook Junior. At a town meeting held August 13, 1701 he was granted liberty to transport "2000 of eyghtene inch sedor shingles." … the inventory of his estate was taken December 29, 1701 which proves that his death must have occurred between these two dates. The records of the New Haven County Court show that on January 1, 1701-'02 administration on his estate was granted to Thomas Hall of Guilford and an inventory of the property was presented to the court. The names of the children were, Alice Cook aged 20 years, Elizabeth 18, Samuel 14, Mehetable 9, and Deliverance 6. The record further shows that Samuel chose John "Parmely" of Guilford for his guardian and the court appointed "Parmely" guardian of Mehetable, and Thomas Hall guardian of Deliverance.
