Susanna & William Rook/e
« on: Thursday 10 August 06 19:20 BST (UK) »
Hi
I am trying to find out about Susanna & William Rook/e
They had two daughters
Mary Rook/e christened 4 March 1810 St Andrews Clifton Bristol who married 1833 in Georgeham Devon to William Glover
The other daughter
Ann Rook/e christened  4 July 1813 St Andrews Clifton Bristol she married John Goss in 1833 Georgeham Devon
I am told that they maybe related to Admiral Sir George Rooke who took Gibralter for the British in 1704.
Kind regards Chris

From his marrriages he only had one son from the 2nd marriage to Mary Luttrell (1681-1702).
The son was called George.
George Rooke, born 1702, died in 1739 and was the last male heir of this family.
