General Notes: Husband - [Father] Alcock


The Alcocks belonged to a very old family of that name in Holland, Lincolnshire, England whence it spread to Chester, Hunts, Notts and Cambridgeshire and intermarried with the families of Thorold in Lincolnshire, Cromwell and Pepys in Cambridgeshire.
In early Lincolnshire records the name is spelled Helcock, Halcock, Alcock and Elcock. The Yorkshire family of Alcock to which the Archbishop of Lincolnshire belonged was connected with the families of Morris and Atlee in Pennsylvania.
The name was indifferently spelled Alcock and Elcock by the first emigrants to Pennsylvania.

According to an old family Bible published in London in 1611 and at one time in the possession of William W. Elcock, late of Company I, 17th U. S. Infantry stationed at Manila, to whom it came by inheritance, John Alcock, born May 10, 1724, was the son of Richard, born February, 1699, died October, 1751, the son of John, Sr., born 1674, died Aug. 23, 1749, the son of Thomas, born Feb. 23, 1649, in Holland, Lincolnshire, England.
