Treasure Chest Thursday~Blount and Mary Susan (Cook) Alsobrook
Blount Alsobrook and Mary Susan Cook were married before 1830 most likely in Trigg County, Kentucky. The 1830 Census for Trigg County shows them married with a young female 0-5 years of age in that census. Mary Susan was the daughter of Daniel Cook, Sr. and Ruth Moultrie. Only one known child was born to this union, a son, John Marion Alsobrook, b. 26 December 1834.
About 1812, Daniel Cook, Sr. died in Chesterfield County, South Carolina. After the death of Daniel, Ruth Moultrie Cook, the widow, packed up her family and moved them to Christian County, Kentucky, sometime before October 1816.
Her son, Joseph Moultrie Cook had preceded her to Kentucky. On 10 August 1816 he married Martha “Patsy” Lindsay in Christian County, Kentucky.
About the same time that Ruth left for Kentucky, her daughter Alice and husband William Samuel Sellers migrated from Chesterfield , South Carolina to Wilcox County, Alabama.
Ruth remained in Kentucky until her death after 1830. No exact date has yet been found for Ruth Moultrie Cook.
The census show us that Blount Alsobrook was in Trigg County,, Kentucky in 1830 and had migrated to Wilcox County, Alabama by 1840. It is believed that they left to join the William Samuel Sellers family after the death of Ruth Moultrie Cook.
The Mortality Census for 1880 Colbert County Alabama shows that Blount Alsobrook and his wife Mary Susan (Cook) Alsobrook both passed away between 1 June 1879 and 31 May 1880.
Mary Susan (Cook) Alsobrook (Line 13) died October 1879 from Pneumonia. Blount Alsobrook (Line 10) died February 1880 from consumption.
Mary Susan (Cook) Alsobrook is my 1st Cousin 6 times removed.
