Her name was Margaret Cook, she married a Henry Curry of Friar Terrace, Hartlepool, Co. Durham, England. I think she was born either at Trimdon or Wingate Co. Durham, England. She had a few nieces and nephews. One was a Mrs. Glass of Wingate who came out to Canada in 1932 on a visit to either a brother or sister, who had a farm in or near Exeter. I met Mrs. Glass many years ago at my grandmother's funeral. There was another niece who lived with my grandmother for a while, a Jane Ann Cook. She married a Simpson Sayers of Trimdon. They went to live in South Africa, had one son who became a minister and once preached in Johannasburg Cathedral. He would be around 75 if still living. My grandfather was a bonesetter. If there is anyone who knows any living relative please write to me. Mrs. Ruby Walden, 460 Cheapside St. London 24, Ont. If there is anyone in England, my brother expects to go there next year for a visit and would like to call and see them.
