The only information known about William Corey is written in the "Co rey
Family Bible", which shows his year of birth as 1827 and his date of
de ath as June 8, 1884. It shows a marriage to Cordelia Spelman, however,
no da te of marriage is shown.
It appears that the three illegitimate children of Co rdelia Spelman were
raised with the "Corey" surname and would be considered s tep-children of
William Corey.
The burial location of William Corey and Cord elia Spelman is unknown.
They are not buried in the Corey site at the Granby Cemetery. Whether the
"Corey" children knew of their background is uncertain as none of the
Corey descendants were aware of the "Cook" genealogy.

William married Cordelia Adeline SPELMAN. Cordelia (daughter of Chauncey Franklin SPELMAN and Mary Ann CASE) was born on 6 Jul 1851 in Simsbury, Hartford County, Connecticut; died on 16 Apr 1888. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
