No one knows where Joseph COCKMAN originated or when he came to this country. Most believe he came from Norfolk England. However, there is a German "Cockman" surname, and he did marry into a German speaking family.

If Joseph was of English origin, then a possible father to him was John COCKMAN, born in Hertfordshire that married a woman named Rose ____.
