Generation: 4
8. | William (Owsley) COCKERHAM was born in 1794 (son of Elder Humphrey COCKERHAM and JAMIMA). Notes:
From Corbett Cockerham
THE FOLLOWING NOTES SUPPLIED BY FRANK E. COCKERHAM:
Two days after John Cockerham made an unsuccessful claim in entry 1289, William Cockerham made an unsuccessful claim in entry 1290 in the very same area in which John would later recieve his grant; see fig.1. I believe this William to be the son of { Elder} Humphrey. William Cockerham did not appear in the census of 1820 presumably because he was in the household of his father Humphrey. William briefly owned land on the Roaring River; 100 acres purchased 21 September 1816 (24-177) and sold 1 November 1917. (24-220). Both deeds were witnessed by William Taulbee, a person with whom William Cockerham was often associated.
William and Elisabeth "Cockrum" of Owsley [Co. KY] household 192 were ages 56 and 54 respectively in the 1850 census. Their Oldest Child was James, born 1822 in NC, who married Emily Stamper. The year of birth of their first child James, is consistent with the hypothesis that this William and Elisabeth were the participants in the Wilkes County marriage of 29 march 1821 of William Cockerham and Elisabeth Hill with Samuel Parsons as bondsman (Holcomb). Note that Sameul Parsons was the adjoining neighbor to John Cockerham on fig. 1.
William Cockerham died before the 1860 census, survived by his widow Elisabeth and living with Martin in the 1860 census, probably on their farm which became part of Breathitt County by 1860. Their sons were James, Humphrey, William M., Martin, John Miles, Elijah and Daniel Duff, according to Mary DeBusk Voth. All these sons appear in either James household 191 or William's household 192 in the 1850 census except Humphrey.
In the Wilkes County tax lists, William Cockerham was taxed as a poll, but without acreage.
