  • Notes 
    • There is no direct proof that the William Cocking who is the father of Stephen is the one who married Sarah Dyas. This baptism record is selected based on the 1851 census which records William's birthplace as Tealby, coupled with the use of Fenwick for middle names of some of his descendants. Also the "F" of his middle name is assumed to refer to Fenwick. Mar 2011. Jim Ward.
    • William Cocking witnessed the marriage between Camas Pratt & Sarah Gibbins. Lincstothepast.com. Jan 2012.
