        PROPERTY: Purchased property in Gaines, Orleans, New York in 1826 and sold it
        in 1834. Purchased property in Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1835 but died before
        he could move to Kalamazoo, Michigan. A document dated 10 Mar 1840
        assigned property of deceased to his heirs at law. 'Pursuant to a warrent
        to us directed by the Hon. the probate court for the County of Kalamazoo
        State of Michigan we the subscribers having been first sworn agreeably to
        the directions of said warrent have appraised on our said oath, all the real
        estate whereof Abiel Cook late of Orleans County state of New York,
        deceased intestate died siezed within this state at the sum of One Thousand
        One Hundred Ninety four dollars and 20 (twenty) cents. Whereupon we have
        set and divided the said estate to and among Calvin Rundell, Hiram Cook,
        Edward Willard, Richard McOmber, Peter Crippen, Alonzo Cook, Alfred Cook,
        the heirs to said deceased as follows..' The addresses nor the relationship
        of these persons to the deceased were not given.
        Abiel lived in Penfield, Monroe, New York from probably around the
        1810 until at least 1830. Need to search land records to see if he owned
        land in Penfield.

        Note:
        The complete text of note from Lysander Berry to Hanna Cook Dayton reads as
        follows: 'Your Grandfather was William Cook, he had two brothers Job Cook
        and Byle Cook, William Cook your grandfather and his brother Byle married
        two sisters sisters Lucy Chapman and Lois Chapman. William married Lucy,
        the other brother Job went away on a ship and was never heard of again.
        These Cooks came from Connecticut...'
        The existance of William's two brothers, Job and Abiel (Byle) and Lucy's
        sister, Lois is confirmed by the 'Proxey Baptism' list referred to above.
        Henry F (Freeman) Cook is listed as 'Son' when he was baptized for William
        Cook and 'Nephew' when her was baptized for Job and Abiel (Byle). Hannah
        Cook Dayton was listed as 'Grand Daughter' when she was baptized for Lucy
        Chapman and 'Grand Niece' when she was baptized for Lois Chapman.
