Children born 1683-1703: William, Lydia, Rebecca, Jacob, Margaret, Josiah, John, Damaris. Lydia (Miller) Cooke died at Kingston, 1 March, 1727/8, in her 67th year, and Jacob3 Cooke, her husband, died at Kingston, 24 April, 1747, in his 95th year. Jacob was almost seventy-five years old when Lydia died and nothing has been found on the original records to indicate that he had a second wife. His will was made less than eight months after Lydia's death and it mentions all of the children whose births are on the Plymouth records. "The Genealogical Advertiser", Volume I page 126, states he had a second wife, Phebe. This error apparently was the result of confusing Jacob3 Cooke and his son Jacob4 Cook. [ref 93:21-42] "Jacob Cooke of Kingston . . . yeoman" made his will 16 October, 1728. "Imprimis having Given to my Three Sons William Jacob and Josiah By Deed of Gift what I designed Them as Their full parts and Portions of my Estate, I Give and Bequeath unto my Son John over and above what I Have already Given him By Deed of gift Which I Do Hereby Confirm, a Bed and Beding." To "my Daughter Damaris one of my Best Beds With all The Furniture Belonging To it allso Two Cows or the Value of Them In money allso The Liberty To use and Improve one Room In my Dwelling House So long as She Shall Remain unmarried." To "my Four Daughters Lydia Rebeckah margaret and Damaris Their Heirs and assigns forever To Be Equally Divided Between Them my lott of Land which I Bought of Joseph King lying Near agawam In the Township of Plimouth Together with all the remainder of my moveable. Estate after my Just Debts and Funerall Charges are first paid" "I . . . appoint my Son John Cooke Sole Executor of This my last Will" The witnesses were: Thomas Croade, John Washburne and Rachel Croade. On 21 May, 1747, "Thomas Croade esqr and John Washburne" made oath to the will, and it was probated. "To Benjamin Samson of Kingston . . . Gent Greeting Whereas Jacob Cooke late of Kingston . . . yeoman Deceased" made his will on 16 October, 1728, and "appointed his son John Cooke of sd Kingston yeoman Executor of said will, But it so hapned that the said John Cook dyed Before the said Jacob Cooke the Testator administration is therefore hereby Committed unto the said Benjamin Samson". The letter was dated 1 June, 1747. On 1 June 1747, Benjamin Samson, gentleman, of Kingston, as administrator, with Charles Dyre and Abner Holmes, both mariners of Plymouth, as sureties, gave a bond of �500. The bond was signed by Benj Samson Abner Holmes and Chas Dyre, and witnessed by Edward Winslow and Hannah Winslow. "An Inventory of the Estate of Mr Jacob Cooke late of Kingston Decd" was taken 13 June, 1747, in old tenor, by Samuel Foster, Joseph Mitchell and Robert Bradford. The total was �341.3s. The real estate was: "a Lot of land near Agawam as by Information Suppose to be" �34.
