I am trying to nail down my great, great, great, great grandfather.His son was Henry Shook born in 1827.Henry's wife was Eliza.I believe Henry was born in Columbia County NY, but most of his family were orginally from the Red Hook Dutchess County area.While I have locate death records for Henry, Milan Dutchess County NY 1903, those records do not list parents, or even where Henry is buried so I have been stymied on his father.I would appreciate any help I can get.The father may be John Shook Red Hook B/1783, but I have no proof.I have been unable to find John's children.HOwever, one of Henry's sons my great, great, grandfather was John Shook so...Please feel free to email me at topps53@optonline.net.
Thanks Charles
