    Notes from a letter from Frank Cockerham Oct 15th 1997.
    ...the decendants of Abel Sparks and Sarah"Cockran" believe that Sarah's father was Humphrey Cockerham of Wilkes Co. NC because Abel Soarks was living on contiguous property to Humphrey on Jan. 25th, 1800 - deed book GH p.26; and on Dec 12th 1801 , a deed from Humphrey to Abel Sparks was made for 150 acres for 100 pounds sterling - deed book F1 p.183. Abel was born about 1778, died 1872. Sarah was born about 1779, died Aug. 12th, 1853, aged 74 years, in Wisconsin....The decendants know that Sarah was supposed to have been a Cochran. It is a long standing tradition because one of her daughters named her second son James Cochran Kirkpatrick.

    Abel married Sarah COCKRAN. Sarah (daughter of Elder Humphrey COCKERHAM and JAMIMA) was born on 1 May 1779 in North Carolina; died on 12 Aug 1853 in Lima Twp., Grant County, Wisconsin. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 15.  Sarah COCKRAN was born on 1 May 1779 in North Carolina (daughter of Elder Humphrey COCKERHAM and JAMIMA); died on 12 Aug 1853 in Lima Twp., Grant County, Wisconsin.

    Notes:

    From Corbett Cockerham
    NOTES FROM A LETTER FROM FRANK E. COCKERHAM 10/15/97

    I have since learned from a reader of the articles that decendants of Abel Sparks and Sarah "Cockran" believe that Sarah's father was Humphrey Cockran or Cockerham of Wilkes County because Abel Sparks was living on contiguous property to Humphrey on 25 Jan, 1800 ( Deed book GH pg.26); and on 12 Dec 1801 a deed from Humphrey to Abel Sparks was made for 150 acres for 100 pounds (Deed Book F1 p. 183)...

    Notes from Dorothy L. Creely in a e-mail Nov. 1 1997:

    My ancestor, Sarah Cockerham, born abt.1780 in Wilkes Co. NC probably married Abel Sparks in Wilkes Co. abt. 1800. They moved about 1807 to Franklin Co. TN, then to Bond Co. Illinois about 1820, finally settling in Grant Co. Wisconsin about 1832. I have the feeling she is the daughter of Daniel Cockerham Jr. She is a cousin of Francis Cockerham Hurt. (maybe).... My notes on Abel Sparks is quite complete.
