BONNY, do add info about "stopping" first in Lynn? Dedham? and then going to Southampton.

BONNY - DO ENTER THE WILL HERE.

Notes from Web Site- Notes from Jonathan Cook (June 26, 1998):
"Ellis Cook's name appears on the Southhampton, Long Island, NY town record in 1644. He had a village lot on the east side of Main Street, the second one south of the meeting house. He afterwards lived near the water-mill on the road to Bridgehampton. He probably came to Southampton from Lynn, MA...as a group of persons from Lynn helped found the town. It is unclear when he came to America.
His wife, Martha Cooper, probably came in 1634 with her father John Cooper (b. 1594)."

NOTES from papers typed by someone in the Cook family: ELLIS COOKE, the original Cook ancestor, came from Southhampton, England, about 1640, landing in Lynn, MA, then moving to Southhampton, Long Island, NY, being one of the founders of that place. The family then moved to New Jersey, then Asher, father of Nathaniel and William with his father Nathaniel moved to Satatoga County, NT. Asher's and Helena's children were all born in Charlton,NY.

2014 - Y-DNA Test on Alan Lincoln Cook : results were joined to the British DNA Project by County - Lancashire. Matches here conclusively prove that Ellis Cooke was born in Lancashire. More work is needed to confirm that the records found (Elys Cooke, b. October 1601 in Ashton-under-Lyne, and that of his father, Elys Cooke, d. September 1601) are in deed the correct Cooke family.

Birth:
St. Michael's Church

Ellis married Martha Cooper about 1648 in Mecox,SouthHampton,Long Island, NY. Martha (daughter of John Cooper and Wibroe Griggs) was born on 26 Nov 1629 in Olney,Bucks,Eng; died after 29 May 1690 in Mecox,SouthHampton,Long Island, NY. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

"The Will of Ellis Cook," edited by Albert Stanburrough Cook, privately printed in New Haven in 1916, contains the following information:

o Like her brothers, John and Thomas, Martha Cooper Cooke was perhaps of a litigious disposition. She had disputes about land with the towne of Southampton in 1681, two years after her husband's death.

o There are various references to her in "Early History of Southampton, L. I.," by George Rogers Howell, New York 2d ed., Albany, 1887, and "The Second Book of Records of the Town of Southampton," Sag Harbor, N.Y., 1874.
