HOOKER FAMILIES OF NORTH CAROLINA

My greatgrandfather was HENRY HOOKER born 1829 in Tyrrell County North Carolina.HENRY married HANNAH TWIFORD, daughter of WALLACE TWIFORD of Tyrrell County in 1816.He moved to Craven County County about 1856 with other members of his family.HENRY'S parents were WILLIAM HOOKER (born 1797) and MARY "POLLY" BATEMAN HOOKER (born 1800). It is belived that WILLIAM'Sfather was named WILLIAM and he was the son of JOHN HOOKER of Tyrrell County.
JOHN HOOKER had served as surveyor, sheriff, justice, juror andrepresentative to the state legislature from Tyrrell County.JOHN'S father was WILLIAM HOOKER II (will 1756).
This WILLIAM was the son of WILLIAM HOOKER I (will 1716/17).
I plan to put together a booklet on the HOOKERS OF EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA.I would appreciate any information on any HOOKERS from this area.Would be glad to share information.
