Y-DNA Descendants
First Generation
Not much is known about the origins of Francis Cooke[1]. He is believed to have been born about 1583[1] He registered his Banns to marry Hester Mahieu in Leiden on 4 Jul 1603.[2] The family is generally believed to have lived in Leiden until they emigrated aboard the Mayflower in 1620. Francis and his wife continued to live in Plymouth until their deaths. He died there on 7 Apr 1663.[3]
Francis and Hester had an infant (sex unknown) who was buried at Leiden on 20 May 1608[4] then had two sons and four daughters. The sons were John and Jacob. John married Sarah Warren (daughter of Mayflower passenger Richard Warren) they only had five daughters.[5] Thus, the Y-DNA line only continues from Jacob.
Second Generation
Jacob Cooke was born in Leiden about 1617. He came over with his mother and other siblings on the Ann in 1623. Jacob married twice. His first wife was Damaris Hopkins[6] married Plymouth shortly after 10 Jun 1646.[7] She died[8]and he married second, 18 Nov 1669 to Elizabeth (Lettice) Shurtleff.[9] By his second wife, he only had one daughter[10] but by his first wife he had four daughters and three sons (Caleb, Jacob II, Francis).
Third Generation
(Capt.) Caleb Cooke (1651-1721/2) married Jane (surname unknown) and lived at Plymouth. They had five daughters and 4 sons (John, Caleb, James & Joseph). Son Caleb died s.p. shortly after marrying, and the Y-DNA line for son Joseph ended, so Y-DNA only continued with sons John and James.
Jacob Cooke (1653-1747) married Lydia Miller. They lived in the area of Plymouth which became the new town of Kingston in Jun 1726. They had 4 daughters and 4 sons (William, Jacob, Josiah & John).
Francis Cooke (1662-c1746) married Elizabeth Latham. They also lived in the area of Plymouth which later became Kingston. They had 3 daughters and 3 sons (Robert, Caleb & Francis). The son Francis only had two daughters, so the Y-DNA only continued with sons Robert & Caleb.

DNA Results FGC57464
Previous Y-DNA testing
Previous Y-STR testing through the Mayflower Society DNA Project and the Cook surname DNA project (Lineage 3a) has indicated that the Mayflower Cooke lineage belongs to the I-M223 Y-DNA haplogroup. Y Elite and Big Y-700 testing documents the family falls under: I-M223>CTS616>FGC15071>BY1003>L1229>Z2069>Z2068>Z2054>Y4746>FGC15109>FGC15105>BY18>Y4761>Y4760>FGC57449>FGC57463>FGC57458>FGC57464
Interestingly, the FTDNA Cook DNA Project (sub-group I2 - Lineage 3b Cooke of Gloucester, VA) has tested positive for FGC57458 but negative for FGC57464. This documents where the Cooke family from Gloucester, VA is related to Francis Cooke's paternal ancestry. The founder of this Cooke family was Mordecai Cooke, born circa 1623. Some have claimed paternal ancestry for this family back to the 14th Century, but this claim still needs to be verified.
