If anyone has access to the Thorncombe Parish records, I'd be very grateful for help with the following:
Ann Cook, bapt 14.04.1819 Thorncombe (info from IGI)
Parents Alexander Cook and Sarah
On IGI I have found 2 "Alexander Cooks":
1 bapt 20. 10.1776 Thorncombe, father Noah Cook, mother Hester.
1 bapt 23.05.1779 Thorncombe, father James.
I also found Alexander Cook, born circa 1779, Thorncombe, whose wife Sarah, born circa 1783, was buried 1849.
From this it appears as though my Alexander was the one born in 1779, father James.
I would be most grateful if someone with access to the records could take a look and see if there is any other info which might confirm this or help in any way - also if there is any record of any siblings of Ann.
Many thanks in advance.

At that time Thorncombe was part of Devon (I think it moved around the time of the first census). There is a couple in Thorncombe in 1841 that may be yours, but no sign of Ann:
HO107/201/12
Elexander Cook, 60+, Spinner?? of wool
Job Cook, 25+, weaver
Charles Cook, 15+, taylor?
George Cook, 14, taylor
Sarah Cook, 50+
Elizabeth, 20+,
Susan? Cook, 15+,
Sarah Cook, 15+ all born in county
This may be the Alexander Cook, 72, widower, who is living with his son Alexander, 34, in 1851.
Have you looked at the Dorset OPC site?

The IGI gives the following siblings for Ann:
Job (1813), John (1811), Alexander (1816), Elizabeth (1820).

Hi there
I am a decendant of James Cook & Mary Hussey, James was born abt 1793 though it states he is not of the parish, they married in 1816 in Thorncombe, he later states that he is from Salisbury in later census's.
If there is any connection please let me know will willingly exchange info
thank you
