I am looking for information concerning Milton Cook c 1821, Ill OR (VT) & Olive Amanda Smith c. 1825 NY and all of their related family. In order to understand their lives, I need to know about their parents, any marriages, divorces, and even children.

Pleas contact me if you have info on the above two who may not have been married, but are the parents of Chauncey Harvey Cook c 1842 Nauvoo, ILL.

Sally Smith c. (NY); Jarmath Asa Markham c. Hawleys parents

Milton Cook c 1821, Ill OR (VT); Olive Amanda Smith c. 1825 NY; parents of
