Default Dod Cook

This chap, a Peruke Maker, died in 1804 and left a will:

He names a neice, Elizabeth Cook, and a natural son, Robert Dod Cook, son of Mary Chirlish.

There is a Clandestine Marriage on FMP in 1754 between Dod Cook, peruke maker, and Ann Jane Dinyon:

His burial is also on FMP.

I'm trying to find out as much as I can about him, purely as there is a Cook - Dod marriage in OH's tree in 1802.

Cook is a very common surname, so there may well be no connection between Dod Cook and the 1802 marriage. If the marriage was before Dod's birth (about 1720), I would say it was more likely to be connected.

Thanks, Kate.

I have come to the conclusion that there is no connection, although his name did catch my eye, especially as the marriage of Edward Cook and his bride Anna Maria had her surname spelt as Dod and not Dodd.
