Hi Jack,
We are probably second or third cousins. My GGgrandmother was Helen Smith Cooke. I have some correspondence from Charles Maynard Cooke and his son (Admiral Cooke of WWII) that you might be interested in seeing. Get back to me if you are interested.

I descend from Westwood’s brother, Moses.
