- From Corbett Cockerham
!NOTES FROM FRANK E. COCKERHAM: To the south of James Cockerham's {property} was Martin Cockerham who made entry 3535 for 50 acres on 10 March 1829; see the tract labelled "Martin 1". It should be noted that the southeast corner of that tract was "a pine in Humphrey Cockerham's old line." Since Martin was on the 1829 tax list for 100 acres, he obviously owned another 50 acres that were not in the deed books. In 1849 Martin made another land entry to describe his holdings adjacent to James Cockerham and the Nathaniel Barker tract, and the resulting NC grant 5487 is shown as "Martin 2" in figure 2. The tract labelled "M3" was a later acquisition by Martin. Martin combined tracts "Martin2" and "M3" in a deed to his son James Cockerham in 1855 ( Deed Book S-473).
