She married Joseph Baggs in 1837. There was an earlier Samuel Pocock (1752-1826) in Kingsclere who had a least one daughter Hannah born ca 1773. Hannah married first John Miles in 1796 and later Benjamin Hedgecock in 1828. A John Pocock was the tenant of the Swan Inn, Kingsclere in 1770 and a John Pocock married Rebecca Wythe at Deane on 8 April 1779. The Samuel you have and this one just might be linked.
