Subject: Relative of James W. and Floydia P. Cockrell?
Hello,
I am a realtor in Orlando, FL and am looking for heirs to property owned by James W. and Floydia P Cockrell. There is a vacant lot here that has several years taxes due, and may be put up for public auction whenever a tax certificate holder asks for a sale, so I am trying to locate the owner of the land and sell it for them at fair market value rather than a tax sale. If you are related to the Cockrells, or know someone who is, please contact me for information. The land needs to be transferred to the rightful heirs and then can be sold. I can assist with all that.
Thanks for any help or information you can provide.

I can track my family back to Lee Cockrell who lived somewhere around Lexington VA (possibly in Rockbridge County), and later moved to Harper's Ferry, WV (was VA back then). He had a son named Raymond C. Cockrell (spouse Elizabeth Dougherty) and his children were James R. Cockrell (spouse Sarah) and Mary Elizabeth Cockrell (all lived in Grafton, WV). James R. Cockrell's children are Robert, Susan, Mark and Kevin, all still living in various states. James was my Grandfather.
I have not been able to find records of Lee Cockrell or anyone in his family in the Lexington VA area around 1850 or so.
The reason I know they lived around Lexington, is because it has been told down through the generations of my family that General Robert E. Lee was friends with these Cockrell's, as he used to come to their home for Sunday dinner when he was going to college at Virginia Military Institute, which is in Lexington, VA.
Any information at all would be so appreciated! Thank you
