Mary Baugh, b. ca. 1662, in Henrico Co., m. John Cocke: Oct. 1, 1696: “John Cocke Jr, son of Richard Cocke Sr, of County & Parish of Henrico”; probable son of Richard by hs second wife, Mary Aston. John Cocke Jr. was, to repeat, the half-br. of Thomas Cocke, named as a “friend” in the Will of Major William Harris. By the same token as John Browne would have been familial with Richard Cocke, the family of Baugh were familial to the family of Major William Harris. It is as simple as this.
