- From the files of James R. Hancock - hanser5@@aol.com:
  From page 529 of "Reliques of the Rives Ryves: Historical and Genealogical notes of the ancient family of Ryves of County Dorset and of the Rives of Virginia," by James Rives Childs (Call Number: R929.2 R62); Lynchburg, Virginia: J. P. Bell Company, 1929.
  
  "Samuel Hancock was a son of William Hancock (m. (???) Cockroft, presumably a granddaughter of William Cockroft, a merchant adventurer in Rotterdam, Holland, in 1648, a kinsman of William Moseley), of Lower Norfolk Co. Va., son of Simon Hancock, a wealthy resident of the same county as early as 1639, and who may have been, like his neighbors and friends, the Moseleys and Cockrofts, formerly resident in Rotterdam, but, like these others, of English blood."
