Research Notes

Only one daughter is mentioned in the obituary of Claude Nathaniel Cook. Daughter Jessie Ruth Cook was married to John Earl Warren and appears to be still living. I did find records for Eugene P. Vancleave of Yazoo City who died on Dec 21, 2012. His obituary had no family details. Daughter Claudiet (or Claudette) Cook may be married to him. Bishop-4082 21:17, 9 October 2016 (EDT)
