SILVANUS COOK, farmer, P. O. Larue, was born April 14, 1807, in Washington
County, Penn., and emigrated to Ohio at the age of seven years, residing at
first in Lexington, Richland County, and finally, in January, 1843, came to this
county, where he has since remained. He is a farmer by occupation, and owns
thirty-eight acres of land in Section 12, Dudley Township. April 22. 1830, he
was united in marriage to Anna Spacklin, native of England, born June 14, 1805,
of English descent, who emigrated to this State at the age of eighteen years.
This union has resulted in five children, viz., Nelson W., married: John L.,
married; Peter S. (deceased); George J. (deceased), and Parmelia Ann, the wife
of Byron B. Kilbourne. For nine years Mr. Cook served as Constable, for two
years was Supervisor, and for six years a School Director. In politics he is a
Republican, has been an active man in his day, and is one of the robust pioneers
who made themselves prominent in the early history of this country.
