[4811]
"Thomas Cooke of Rhode Island"
Jane Fletcher Fiske
Boxford, MA, 1987; p40
"George Cooke, son of Thomas Cooke alias Butcher and his wife Mary, was born probably in 1647
at Portsmouth, R.I., and died after 11 February 1711 when he witnessed a deed at Shrewsbury, N.J.
In deeds, he is called a tailor, and he signed with an unusual mark which, although it might be
considered a pair of crossed stillyards, certainly does resemble an open pair of scissors. He married,
before 1783, Ann ---, who died sometime after June 1689 when she signed her mark to a deed at Newtown,
Long Island, N.Y."
