I am related to the Cockrills who went to Allen Co., KY. James Younger
Cockrill was my great-grandfather.
I know there was also a (younger) Presley Cockrill later in Allen County.
To Lorraine who was inquiring about Presley Cockrill and Margaret Hudnall.
This probably doesn't help much, but perhaps other descendants of Cockrells
will find something of interest.
