This profile is a placeholder for William Hemmings Cook's many indigenous wives.
Though the (known) wives' names are recorded in many forms, this list is considered to be, at the very least, an earnest attempt at representing them respectfully:
- Kahnapawanakan
---- relationship lasted from about the time of William's arrival in the summer of 1786 to about
---- by 1808, understood to be the mother of Nancy, Jane, Joseph, James, and possibly of Samuel, Jeremiah and Margaret
---- she is understood to have passed away in about 1812 or 1813
- Ke-Che-Cow-E-Com-E-Coot "Betsy" Cocking
---- she lived with William and his family from about 1801 and had been married to Muskego Budd and brought as many as five of her children from that marriage into the household, born between 1799 and 1810
---- whether she was the mother of any of Wllliam's children remains an open question
---- may have passed away in or around 1821 in the Red River Settlement
- Mith-Coo-Coo-Man Esquaw "Agathas" or "Mary" Cocking (circa 1769 - circa 1853)
---- is known to have been part of the William Cook household from about 1803
