I think I have info on Emma Orr. She married Robert Lee Cook (born about l870). His father was Lemuel A.Cook, my ggg-grandfather, born in 1807 in South Carolina. He grew up in Franklin Co. in Tennessee, but moved to Arkansas in the late l840's. His first wife died around that time; he remarried a Martha Harbin. It is this wife with whom he had 2 more children, the younger one being named Robert Lee Cook. He died in the l920's I think. Are these people related to Lemuel Cook? and to you? Lemuel Cook died in Magnet Cove, Arkansas in l885 and I think he is buried there. I understand there was also a cemetery across from the Magnet Cove Baptist Church but that church did not keep records and burned down in the late l800's. The church was rebuilt and I believe the church cemetery is now privately owned by someone--i believe it is a cow pasture.
