He experienced all the privations and hardships incidental to a life in the woods, until by his energy, perseverance and industry, he changed his farm of forests to productive, cultivated fields. He married Ruth Berse, of Massachusetts, who bore him thirteen children, of whom four sons and eight daughters arrived to a mature age, viz: RUTH COOK married Silas French, settled in Glover Vt, finally returned to Winchester and resided with her daughter, Mrs. Russel Follet, where she died; MARY COOK married Samuel Torrey, settled in Westmoreland; THOMAS COOK married first, Relief King and second Orilla Baldwin, who was the mother of four children.
