William Hook born 1759 (Inquests)

by dklopp, Sunday, February 08, 2015, 15:44 (3358 days ago)

In his military file, William HOOK stated he was born in Gloucestershire in the year 1759. He enlisted in the Continental Army in Virginia USA in 1781. I have conducted searches in the emigration list, the christenings available through Ancestry.com, and looked for marriages in the time frame he would have been born.

I have no idea as to when or why or with whom my William would have gone to America. Does anyone have a missing William HOOK in their family? I wish he would have provided more details in his records to point me in the right direction.

Without a parish to work with, this is a needle in a haystack search.

Thanks for any assistance!
