Have you traced your Dockery's pre Buncombe Co? If not, they may come from Spartanburg S.C. My reasoning is thus: I descend from a large Gilbert/Littlefield Clan that lived in Spartanburg. In the 1820's & 30's groups from this clan moved to both Buncombe Co. N.C. and and N.E. Alabama (primarily St. Clair Cos). Going with the Gilberts to Alabama was a family of Dockery's which intermarried with the Gilberts. Also in the 1830's an Arthur Gilbert moved to Union Co. Ga. He was also from the above Spartanburg clan and a first cousin (we have his father as Mark Gilbert, son of Daniel Gilbert Sr.) of those in Buncombe and Alabama. So, perhaps your Dockerys are related to those who intermarried with the Alabama Gilberts. Perhaps they moved with the other Gilberts to Buncombe. Just a lead. Hope it works out. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, June 28, 2000 12:39 PM Subject: [GAUNION] Re: Children's name needed >Daniel W.
