McCook's / Cook's of Argyll

[KMcKenzie]

Hi,

I'm looking for anyone who is descended from any McCook's or Cook's from Argyllshire. The main areas of interest for me are Killean and Kilchenzie and Saddell and Skipness.

I have got back so far as my 5x Great Grandparents William McCook and Mary Dewar who were Married on the 7th October 1798 in Killean and Kilchenzie. So far I have found 5 children of their - all boys.

They are -

John McCook. 25 February 1801 - 5 October 1888. Married Mary Taylor.
Duncan McCook. 30 January 1803 - 16 December 1885. Married Elizabeth McGougan.
Archibald McCook. 14 March 1805 - 13 August 1880. Married Janet McMillan.
Donald McCook. 24 March 1808 - ?. No Spouse Found.
William McCook. 23 July 1815 - 9 December 1895. Married Mary McKeich (or Keith).

If anyone recognises these names in their own family, please get in touch.

Hi,

I have a James Cook born 1826 Skipness/Saddell Parish, buried in Skipness, died 16 09 1905.  He was a shoemaker as was his father. He married Flora Stalker on  18 05 1857, at Carradale, Saddell Parish, they had 6 children, 4 lived.  They resided in Dunoon. This is a later Cook than you have ,however, the relationship could be there somewhere.
