Y-DNA Descendants

For more information see: Woods, Ralph V. (with 2017 addendum by Susan E. Roser and Judith H. Swan), Mayflower Families Through Five Generations, vol. 6 Cooke

First Generation

Not much is known about the origins of Francis Cooke[2][1]. He is believed to have been born about 1583[2] He registered his marriage Banns with Hester Mahieu in Leiden on 4 Jul 1603[3] The family is generally believed to have lived in Leiden until they emigrated aboard the Mayflower in 1620. Francis and his lived in at Rocky Nook (now Kingston) until their deaths. He died there on 7 Apr 1663.[4]

Francis and Hester had an infant (sex unknown) who was buried at Leiden on 20 May 1608[5] then had two sons and four daughters. The sons were John (bp 1607)[6] and Jacob. John married Sarah Warren (daughter of Mayflower passenger Richard Warren) they only had five daughters.[7] Thus, the Y-DNA line only continues from Jacob.

Second Generation

Jacob Cooke[8] was born in Leiden about 1617-18[9] and died Plymouth (Rocky Nook, now Kingston), bet. 11 Dec - 18 Dec 1675.[10] He came over with his mother and other siblings on the Ann in 1623. Jacob married twice. His first wife was Damaris Hopkins[11] married Plymouth shortly after 10 Jun 1646.[12] She died[13]and he married second, 18 Nov 1669 to Elizabeth LETTICE Shurtleff.[14] By his second wife, he only had two daughters[15] but by his first wife he had four daughters and three sons (born Plymouth (Rocky Nook, now Kingston): Caleb, Jacob II, Francis.

Third Generation

(Capt.) Caleb Cooke (1651-1721/2) married Jane (surname unknown) and lived at Plymouth (Rocky Nook, now Kingston). 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 (II) (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 I-FGC57472

Previous Y-DNA testing

Previous Y-STR testing through the Mayflower Society DNA Project and the Cook surname DNA project (sub-grop I2 - Lineage 3a) has indicated the Mayflower Cooke lineage belongs to the I-M223 Y-DNA haplogroup.

NGS/WGS testing

Y Elite and Big Y-700 testing of four[1][2] patrilineal descendants of Francis Cooke documents the family falls under: I-M223>CTS616>FGC15071>BY1003>L1229>Z2069>Z2068>Z2054>Y4746>FGC15109>FGC15105>BY18>Y4761>Y4760>FGC57449>FGC57463>FGC57458>FGC57472.

Interestingly, the FTDNA Cook DNA Project (sub-group I2 - Lineage 3b Cooke of Gloucester, VA) has an individual who tested positive for FGC57458 but negative for FGC57472. 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.

Palindromic duplication

One of the most significant feature of the Y-Chromosomes are its Palindromic arms (also see: Palindromic arms presentation) These arms create duplicate markers, which is why a few STR results (like DYS459, DYS464, CDY, YCAII and others) have multiple results. These palindromic arms are also subject to either duplication (resulting in extra STR markers) or deletion (resulting in "missing" STR markers). It appears where a patrilineal ancestor of Francis Cooke had a mutation duplicating two of the Palindromic arms (called P1 and P2). This causes extra STR markers at DYS459, DYS464 and the CDY markers).

This mutation must have occurred somewhere in Francis Cooke's ancestry as not only do all of his patrilineal descendants have these extra STR markers, but the descendants of Mordecai Cooke also have these extra markers.

Lineage of testers

To date, one of the Big Y-700 testers has revealed their patrilineal (all male line) descent from Francis Cooke. It is as follows:

 Francis Cooke (c1583-1663)
   Jacob Cooke (c1617-1675)
     Francis Cooke (1662-c1740)
       (Lt.) Caleb Cooke (c1694-1762)
         (Capt.) Ephraim Cooke (1737-1821)
           (Capt.) Manasseh Cook (1766-1855)
             Joseph Cook (1790-1861)[3]
               George A. Cook (1813-1894)
                 Charles W. Cook (1854-1927)
                   James Herbert Cook (1890-1969)
                     (father)
                       (tester)  
  1. Three of the testers descend from Joseph7 Cook and all fall under a subclade of FGC57472>FGC57464. We cannot currently trace the ancestry of the fourth Big Y tester back to Francis Cooke, but the fact his is positive for a clade (FGC57472) a patrilineal descendant of Mordecai Cooke has tested negative for indicates where he descends from Francis Cooke as well.
  2. We cannot state with certainty whether all patrilineal descendants of Francis Cooke would be FGC57472+ but we do now they would fall somewhere in this vicinity.
  3. All three Big Y-700 testers are descendants of Joseph. See [1]
