Individual Details
Margaret Scott Cook
(9 Apr 1817 - Jun 1887)
She was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
Adda Cook grew up in this family and called Margaret "Mother"
"Aunt Margaret has suffered from dispepsia, and is now weakened in body and mind. She has no wildness & scarcely any symptoms of insanity. But she feels and thinks she is a trial and trouble to her friends--is morbid on the subject and needs change or treatment to prevent serious derangement"
RBH to Birchard A. Hayes, Jan. 18, 1874
"Margaret is the same deal loving tender woman she was of old. Indeed she appears as if she has come again from the grave. She shows no evidence of insanity in the least, although quiet and subdued. She seems to be wholly devoted to Sallied who is every way worthy of her love..."
Phebe Cook McKell, Chillicothe, OH. to Lucy W. Hayes, May 1, 1879
