      Donna Forney Clark:
      James C. Cockerill (1846-1921) immigrated into Sarpy, NE, USA in 1871. He was followed by three brothers in 1872: George Cockerill (b. 1852); William Cockerill (b. 1844); & John "Joseph" Cockerill (1842-1918) & Catherine Elizabeth Hunt Cockerill (1849-1930) & their infant son Joseph James Cockerill (1871-1955). Karen E. Herrera clarified the following info: With them would have been the 4 year old daughter of John "Joseph" Cockerill, (1842-1918), and Elizabeth Fry Cockerill (about 1847- about 1867). This daughter was Elizabeth Ann [Elizabeth Ann "Anna" Cockerill, 1867-1925].

      Karen E. Herrera:
      Donna Forney Clark:
      In the reference that follows this one, I couldn't place the child [age 4 in 1872] who is listed as either a child of John "Joseph" Cockerill (1842-1918) or of James C. Cockerill (1846-1921). Karen E. Herrera cleared up this mystery: "If you look at the actual record [that is mentioned below], it lists a 4 year old child with Catherine Elizabeth Hunt Cockerill (1849-1930] with the name Jos by it. Since the name or sex of the child is not listed, I think Jos refers to the father [John "Joseph" Cockerill, 1842-1918]. I think the child is Elizabeth Ann [Elizabeth Ann "Anna" Cockerill, 1867-1925]. She would have been 4 years old at the time. Also listed is an infant with Joseph that also says Jos beside the infant. I think Jos again refers to the father's name [John "Joseph" Cockerill, 1842-1918] and that the infant is of course Joseph James Cockerill (1871-1955)."

      Family notes, letters, wills:
      Elizabeth "Anna" Cockerill Lovell was born in England, and her mother died before Mr. Cockerill brought his family to the US. Anna Cockerill had twelve half brothers and sisters. She was killed in an auto accident while visiting relatives in Nebraska. Ruby Eloise "Toodles" Shivertaker Clark told me (Donna Forney Clark) that "Anna" lived in Lake Arthur, LA, but chose to be buried in Shreveport, LA, in the same cemetery where eventually her daughter Mabel Lovell Harwell and son-in-law James Harwell were buried. "Anna" didn't want to be buried in the tidal wetlands of southern LA for fear of water encroaching on her grave.
      The Catherine Cockerill Estate is listed as Lots 12 &13, Blk. 1, 4th addition, Gretna, Nebraska. Gretna is located on Highway 6 and a few miles off of Interstate 80.
