Mary Jane Cooke LeVan was somewhat of an authority on local history and was a frequent contributor to "Now and Then". She has the old commissions and other records of Col Jacob Cooke (her grandfather) (as of 1911) per note in WFT 2933, Vol 7.
From Mary we have 3 documents that are all quite similar based on John Cooke's will of 1758. Since these documents not are titled they are listed by the first sentence of the document and described. 1. Cooke Family Sencips? Gathered by M. J. Levan. Seems to be written in 1860-70 with last entry 1898. Contains 21 5x8 inch pages. 2. Will dated... 19 numbered legal size pages. 3. The following is a synopsis of notes by Levan (4 type written legal size pages in 1926, with the initials EEC on the last page... Mary was born in 1831 and probably died around 1900.
