As you can see from my name, there are still more variations.
The name in Europe (Ireland) is Colclough, and some nasty Gaelic spelling before that.
We are descended from an immigrant Jeremiah Colclough/Coakley through son Benjamin Edmund Coakley. Due to possible multiple marriages of both Jeremiah and Benjamin, I'm still not even sure of his landing place. It could be Norfolk VA, or possibly Boston MA, where I see a few Colclough/Coakley records. Benjamin's wife went across the Alleghenies with her children and settled in Wood County VA, now the part which is Ritchie County WV, and Benjamin Coakley went to North Carolina. The Ritchie County folks all used the name Cokeley from the beginning with a very few exceptions in other counties in WV missing a letter here and there. (Cokely, etc.) Earliest graves are in the IOOF Cemetery in Harrisville (previously Ritchie Court House). The Ohio and southern Virginia families mostly were Coakley.

I may be barking up the wrong tree again as I seem to do a lot in the study of genealogy, but I am a descendant of Jeremiah Colclo who married Sally/Sarah Woods in Hardy County Virginia Jan 21 1805. I have been unable in 25 years to find another Coclo b before Jeremiah who spells the name the same. Therefore I am thinking that the name may be a contraction of Colclough. Since there seem to be a lot of them in VA I am wondering if you know of any Colclough families who were from Hardy County or environs? His War of 1812 records have his name spelled both Colclo and Coakley which I am afraid is the result of an illiterate clerk. Can you help?
