Message Board Post:
Researchers should not overlook existing sources for this widespread family. The Society of Genealogists, London holds amongst the Rogers' Collection of Cornish Pedigrees, genealogies for Cock of Cornwall and Cock of Trefreake, St Endellion, Cornwall. Sir John Maclean in the 3 volumes of Trigg Minor (1873-1879) records information on the family in the parishes of Blisland, Bodmin, St Breward, Egloshayle, St Endellion (including a pedigree of Cock of Trefreake, St Endellion and Rock, St Minver descending from Cock of St Breward), Helland, St Kew, Langteglos by Camelford & Advent (including a pedigree of Cock of Camelford), St Minver, St Teath and Tintagel. An index to personal surnames is incorporated in the work..
Cock families also are mentioned by C S Gilbert in his Historical Survey of Cornwall as being associated with Maddern alias Madron ( originally from Bodmin), Helston, South Petherwin and St Endellion.
Folks,
RootsWeb's mail servers are being located overnight, Wed to Thu this
week, so most of RootsWeb's services, including the HelpDesk, will be
down/stopped/off-line during the relocation.
RootsWeb's Message Boards
<http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/script/main/rw> and World Connect
<http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/> will be available as they have
already been relocated.
E-mail bound for RootsWeb should be held by your ISP automatically until
the servers are back on-line and ready to receive e-mail again. If an
e-mail does bounce back to you, please hold off re-sending it for a
period of six hours.
The time scheduled for the servers to be off is Thu, 19 Jan, from
midnight until 6 a.m. in Utah (MST). This translates to the starting
time in the USA & Canada of Thu, 2 a.m. (EST), 1 a.m. (CST), Wed, 11
p.m. (PST), etc. In the U.K., it's 7 a.m. (GMT); in NZ, 8 p.m. ; in
Aus, 6 p.m. (AEDT), all on Thu.
There is an associated issue ...
As part of the server relocation, there is a "high possibility" that
some/all of the servers will be getting new IP addresses. The potential
problem is that if particular ISPs have whitelisted current RootsWeb IP
addresses, the new addresses might very well be blacklisted unless/until
RootsWeb can contact the relevant ISPs to allow mail through unimpeded.
RootsWeb and I will be watching for this eventuality on this list ...
some patience on your part might be required!
Thanks ... any comments to me off-list, please ...
Peter
List Admin.
