Beth,
I am the ggggrandson of David C. Cocke who died in Scott County VA in
1828. Supposedly, he was descended from a Walter Cocke who with his
brothers, William, and Thomas along with his cousin Christopher was
engaged in transporting settlers to VA circa 1680.
I have copies of the following wills which might be
of interest to you.
Walter Cocke probated 1738. bequests to sons
Thomas and John and daughter Anne Hamlin.
Thomas Cocke dated June 7, 1750. Bequests to
wife Hannah, and sons Lemuel, Thomas, and John
Lemuel Cocke probated August 17, 1756. Bequests
to sons Henry, Rich, Lemuel, Thomas, wife Jane, and daughters Sally,
anne, and Betty
Henry Cocke probated May 27, 1777. Bequests to
sons David and Henry, wife Katherine, and daughters Elizabeth and
Katherine
I believe that the above mentioned David is mmy ggggrandfather, but I
can't etch it in stone

he had 4 children: Richard,Jr.; Thomas W. who md. Martha Cottrell, 1809;
Nancy-b.1775, who md. Daniel Peck,1796; Sarah who md. Reuben Shepherd,1793.
Sarah & Reuben Shepherd are my 5X great-grandparents.

md. Dec. 8, 1840,Henrico Co.,VA. to
Ann Elizabeth COCKE-b.March 12,1818-d.Feb. 26, 1892.

Researchers on my line have a cousin who will turn 106 the end of April. Her
name is Ella Eliza (Cox) Sprinkle. She was born in 1893 in West Fork,
Washington Co., AR and was married to Solon A. Sprinkle. She lives in
Greenville, TX with her daughter's family. In recent years she had a few
problems but was pronounced in excellent health. I recently heard from
another Cox researcher on this line that she had had some health problems
that seemed to be pretty serious during the winter/early spring. The doctor
had prepared the family for the possibility that she wouldnt recover. The
next thing they knew she had rallied and made a wonderful recovery, and she
pronounced she was ready to go home.
Seven years or so ago our cousin Jerry Cox requested that Cox cousins send a
birthday greeting to Ella Sprinkle. Every year cousins of this remarkable
woman send birthday greetings, hoping that she will receive as many as her
age - so this year we are aiming for 106. This is her line of descent, and
mine.
1. Jester Cocke of VA
2. Elisha Cox married Mary Virginia Crabtree
3. Abram Jefferson Pryor Cox married 1st to Sarah Graham, married
2nd to Eliza Jane
Stapleton.
Child of Abram and Sarah:
4. Mary Elizabeth "Mollie" Cox married Morrison Green
5. John Cleveland Green married Nellie Mattie
Aderholt
6. Yvonne Green married Elmer Pete McGee
7. Peggy Yvonne McGee married Kenneth
Atwell Carey
8. me - Dee Carey
Child of Abram and Eliza:
4. Ella Eliza Cox b. Apr 1893 married Solon A. Sprinkle.
This is not an urban legend or anything, she just thoroughly enjoys hearing
from her cousins from all different places. She is my great great
grandmother's half-sister. Any other cousins out there - we'd appreciate you
sending her a birthday card or greeting. Her address is:
Mrs. Ella Cox Sprinkle
334 Wilton Dr.
Greenville, TX 75401
Thanks everyone!!
Dee
Good Reference

Hi Listers,
I am a newcomer to this list, having Cock/s ancestors in the Romiley,
Bredbury area of Cheshire, UK, and Denton/Haughton, Ashton-under-Lyne areas
of Lancashire. I would particularly like to know if anyone can help with the
following query:
The only Cocks ancestor in the early 1800s who is missing from my tree is
WILLIAM COCKS baptised at Hatherlow Chapel, Bredbury, Cheshire, in 1825,
appears on the 1851 census as a silk hatter, still living with parents in
Romiley, John Cocks and Fanny Powell, and disappears completely without
trace so far.
Family story has it that an ancestor was pressganged on his wedding day, and
I am wondering whether it was William. Does anyone have any idea as to
whether or not it could have been, where and how, and more importantly,
where would he have been likely to end up?
TIA, Pam Owen mgowen(a)enta.net
Nantwich, cheshire, UK.
This message is being re-sent for Jennifer Moulder. Please reply
directly to the list or to Jennifer at <moulder(a)enol.com>
******************************************************************************************
Does anyone have information on Colen B. COCKE who married Frances H.
BEEGLESTON on Sept 8 1842 in Chesterfield VA?
I'm looking for a Collin B. COCKE who married Minerva __ and had their
first child in NC in 1855. This is the closest I have come to finding
anyone with that name and wondered if Frances might be a first wife.
Any help would be appreciated.

"Here lie the remains of William Cocke, who died in Columbus, Miss., on
the 22d of August, 1828. The deceased passed an eventful and active
life. Was Captain in command during the war of 1776. Was distinguished
for his brave daring and intrepidity. Was one of the pioneers who first

Thanks! Would you --or anyone else-- know William's (or William Alexander
Cocke II's) relationship to Maggie Cocke Watkins Giles (my paternal great
grandmother)?
