I am seeking information on Fannie Cook who was the daughter of Laura Melvina Pender and Capt. Charles Betts Cook of Edgecombe County. Fannie married Thomas W. Riddick or "T.W. Riddick" in Edgecombe County at Calvary Episcopal Church in 1907. They moved to Gates County,North Carolina, home of T.W. Riddick, and later returned to the Tarboro area around 1925. They attended First Baptist Church in Tarboro, where Riddick served as a Deacon between 1927-1930. T.W. Riddick died in 1930 at Fannie's family plantation home, Oak Grove. Fannie's mother was Laura Pender. Laura was married twice: 1) her first marriage was to Josiah Pender who was a blockade runner during the Civil War and died suddenly from Yellow Fever. Laura had a son named Keon with Josiah and 2) Capt. Charles Betts Cook with whom she had Fannie, Laura Emeralda and possibly another son named James. Oak Grove is Laura Melvina Pender's family home. Laura M. is buried in back of St. Anne's Chapel, which is on the Oak Grove estate. I am a great-great grandaughter of T.W. Riddick and am hoping I will find someone who knew of Miss Fannie as a means of locating additional information on her husband, T.W. Riddick.
Anyone with information, please email me at:
