Subject: Rook Decendents
Do you know if any of the Rook family came to Australia - especially they were ministers of the Church of England?

Hi there Graeme and thanks for your query,
I only know a small bit on the Rook/Rooke family in Wiltshire, UK.
Many could have migrated to Australia or anywhere in the world.
The best thing for you to do is go tp Cyndis list at;
http://www.cyndislist.com/
It is huge and is dedicated to EVERYTHING genealogy.
The other thing to do is join the Rook family mail List. Instructions are at;
http://lists5.rootsweb.com/index/surname/r/rook.html
This is a discussion area for anyone who has an interest in the surname ROOK.
If you are interested in exchanging information on your ROOK ancestors or ask questions
about them - this is the place for you.
This may help you in your quest,
regards,
