Seeking info on M. COOK listed in 1870 Census for Bartholomew Township. Married to Caroline. Lists several children, one of which is Benjamin. I am seeking info on Benjamin, as I believe he may have been my grandfather who was born in September, 1861. Grandfather later moved to Louisiana where he died in 1938. His death certificate lists parents as unknown, but he was born in Arkansas. Any info appreciated.
