I found Amos Cook buried at the same cemetery as my ancestors - Jefferson Davis Cook & his son David Iley Cook. I have no idea if they are related or if they just happened to both be buried in the same cemetery, Bethleham Baptist Church Cemetery near Wickliffe, Ballard County, KY. Of course, the church records burnt in a fire and I am unable to locate any newspaper obits for either of these men.

Here's another Amos Cook
My great grandfather was Amos Jackson Cook (1868-1954) He had a son Rufus Cook, my grandfather (1905-1969). Amos married Mary Ann Farmer. Rufus was born in Arbor, Missouri, but I have no information as to where he is buried. I think they are buried in Illinois. Any information would be great. Thank you. Sincerely
