Personal Notes:
From Sandra Baker e-mail on 8-3-09 "How my Emma met John L. Cooke was through a correspondence while he was serving with the British Army in India.The story goes that Emma wrote on behalf of an uncle's family of W.Wycombe to him while he was in India.Then John Cooke, in India, responded on behalf of the uncle, who was his army friend , back to this man's family in England.
Then a separate correspondence sprang up between Emma and John. John served almost 10 yrs. in India. Upon his return to England in June 1866 he met Emma Plumridge in West Wycombe and they married within weeks.
I have no idea "what" uncles family this could have been. It may have been a Plumridge , Harman or an Avery relative.Hopefully one day I may find out who the uncle was that served along with John Cooke in India."
