I've hit a brick wall and am not sure what to do next.I'm trying to find the parents an the surname of a Samuel Crook 1785c wife. He married a Mary Ann ? and had 11 Children.He was a Silk and Beaver Hat Manufacture where he was in partnership with a Hugh Medcalf at 10/12 Browns Lane Spitalfields London from abt 1810 until his death in 1842.I know all about his family until the present day but nothing about his parents,siblings or wifes family.I know he had a sister Elisabeth Crook 1778c who died at Browns Lane in 1820 unmarried. Can anyone please help. Regards Daphne.
