Hi
I am a descendant of a Ann Crook born 1806 married 1 Charles Parsons, 2 Samuel Vick. I'm from the Parsons side. Their son also Charles came to Australia. Is this the same Crook family?
Her 2 marriage produces 4 children. I do know for sure of Ann's birthpalce or parents, but she married 1, in Whiteparish, the Parsons came from the Farley area.
Lokk forward to a reply.
Thanks Marj

Hi Cj
sorry I havent replyed before now.  I believe my Crook family came to Australia around 1875 sailed from London to Queensland. then went to NSW. John and Ellen both died in New Lambton. and their children around that area.
Cheers

Hello Marj
Sorry Marj but i dont think this is the same Crook family.
I dont have an Ann on my tree at the moment and only 1 born in 1806 but that was a John Crook.
Henry Crook is the only one on my tree that came to australia in 1854.
Sorry i cant be of much help.

cheers cj

Hello
Does anyone have any information on Thomas Crook ?  Born abt. 1788 Wiltshire, wife unknown ?  Most likley worked in the clothworker industry.  May have moved to london Abt. 1842.  One son I am sure about James born abt. 1820, Married 1842 to harriett Burgess March 1842 in London.  James was a Tailor.  James died abt. 1850 in Middlesex.
Son of James and Harriett Edward living with Family? in 1851 Census.

Hi Mary,

I have looked on the LDS site for Thomas and see that the IGI has two submitted records for that name in that year. One is a birth, reputed to have been at Hale, Hampshire, which is very close to Downton but just over the County Boundary. The other is a marriage at Whiteparish, Wiltshire, another place which is very close to Downton.

The records from both those places are available from the LDS for the event and time frames listed.

Hi there CJ,
I'm following up a CROOK family from Wiltshire.
Elizabeth CROOK B 1804 daughter of Richard & Betty CROOK of Avebury Wiltshire.
Elizabeth CROOK married Thomas GALE in 1827 Clyffe Pypard, Wiltshire.  I am descended from their son William Crook Gale who came to Australia in 1853.

Do you see any possible connection to your CROOKs?
Thanks Hilary, Melb.

Hi Cj. I was born a Crook back in 1952, I'm a direct descendant of Steven and Eliza Crook (nee Forder) via their son Jocelyn who was my great great grandfather. He travelled to Wimbledon and some of his descendants still live in the area.

Hello My Nan maiden name was crook, not from Downton but from Morgan Vale like a few miles from there.  May want to check the church records.
