Margaret Wood’s will of 8-12-1817 does not refer to her Cocke children or stepchildren. Assets go to the Jones/Wynne/Randolph side (children of Peter Jones). From 1796-1817, Wood Jones was in Mecklenburg Co., on the south side of the Meherrin River. Also beware of some claiming Michael Jones’ parents were Robert Jones (b: 1678) and Sarah Cleggett m: 3-21-1647, Hingham, MA. No such marriage has been found there, and the paper trail allegedly leads to the Mayflower and England. Michael Jones, Peter Jones and Littleberry Cox were of Welsh descent.  

William Cocke, brother of George Jr and John  “Jack” Cock”, is buried in the Cocke Cemetery, Rutherford Co., TN (Adjacent to Wilson & Cannon Co., TN), one mile NE of the Thompson Road junction with Hwy 99, 500 ft out in a field.

Property Lines within St. Paul’s Parish, Hanover Co., VA:

1711: Precinct included Alexander Cock & Thomas Bradley (who d: Before 1716).

1731: A line between Alexander Cock & Col. William Byrd, Esq.

1759: Line between Charles Jones (& John Jones?) & William Cock (John Cock present).

(1689: A William Cock witnessed John Jones’ complaint in Westmoreland Co., VA.

1763: A line between Charles Jones & John Wingfield, deceased, & Charles Jones & William Cock.

The line of John Wingfield (George Cock present). The line of John Cock (John Wingfield & George Cock present).

The line between Bradley Cock & John Cock (John Wingfield & George Cock present).

1767: A line between John Wingfield, John Cock & William Cock, deceased. William Cock (Jr.?) present. A line between Harden Burnley & Bradley Cock.

DAR has accepted George Cock, Sr. and Agnes of Campbell Co., VA as the grandparents of Littleberry Cox. Like Littleberry’s parents, John and Polly Cox, they (George & Agnes) did patriotic service during the Revolution. Like Littleberry Cox’s brothers, they (George and Agnes) had a son, John Cock, who moved from Campbell Co., VA, to Wilson Co., TN, and wrote his will in 1822, one year after the death of Littleberry’s father, John Cox, in 1821.

Littleberry’s father, John, died in 1821. But Littleberry’s y-dna is J2, and John Cock, likely a brother of George Cock Sr., is N1c1. Claibourn Cox (1791) & Valentine Cox are R1b1; therefore, William Cox (the 1610 immigrant) is R1b1 (refer to previous chart on Cock families of Hanover County).

The following link says Alexander Cock had four sons: John (b: Abt 1720), Bradley, William and George Sr. (b: Abt 1726):
