Thanks for creating the profile of Mary Louisa (Hempstead) Cook (abt.1817-1844) and for posting the family Bible page images on her profile!
I believe that you and I are likely cousins. I believe that Mary Louisa is my 4g grandmother. I believe that she was the wife of Alvan Cook (abt.1805-abt.1850).
Alvan appeared to have married first in the mid-1830s (no marriage record has been found to date), having 3 children (Sarah, Antonia, and Mary) enumerated in the 1850 census whose ages then indicated that they were born before his second marriage in 1846 to Paulina (Neal) Cook (abt.1814-). There have been no records found to date naming his first wife (the mother of those 3 oldest children on the 1850 census).
On 30 Mar 1843, Per Post Office Department Records, Alvan was appointed postmaster at Benton, Scott County, Missouri. Per the family Bible source on her profile, Mary Louisa Cook died on 8 Oct 1844 at Benton, Scott County, Missouri. Alvan's successor as Benton postmaster, Nathaniel Reed, was appointed 28 Nov 1845. Alvan married Paulina Neal on 7 Apr 1846 in Cape Girardeau County, Missouri, where the family was also listed in the 1850 census. Alvan died in 1850 en route to California. In the 1853 Washington County, Missouri probate records for the estate of Alvan's father, Nathaniel Cook, Paulina Cook was identified as the guardian of her two children that she had with Alvan, and John Benjamin Hempstead (abt.1818-1863), brother of Mary Louisa (Hempstead) Cook, was identified as the guardian for Alvan's other 3 children, Sarah E, Antonia, and Mary (John B would have been their uncle).
If you have interest you can view the sources for the above information which are cited and abstracted on Alvan's profile.
Since you are the profile manager for the profile of Mary Louisa (Hempstead) Cook, I wanted to share this information and to let you know that I plan to connect Alvan Cook as her spouse, and Sarah Frances (Cook) Minton (abt.1837-abt.1864), Antonia (Cook) Story (abt.1842-1930), and Mary Cook (abt.1844-) as her children.
Best regards,
