Parents: The latest research into Anne Cocke, wife of Robert Bolling, shows that her parents were Thomas Cocke and his wife Elizabeth Mason, not Richard "the younger" Cocke[1] and his wife Elizabeth (the second or third wife of Richard, whose maiden name is not known). Neither should she be confused with Ann (Bowler) Cocke, wife of Richard's older brother (also named Richard).
