    1. Re: [HANCOCK] Ancestors in the DNA Project
    2. Hi Henry, I am glad that you are in touch with the Hancock members. You should do the DNA test if you wish to know that you are from that line and to be posted in the DNA Project. Follow this link and scroll down to select the test you wish to order: http://www.familytreedna.com/group-join.aspx?Group=Hancock Julia In a message dated 2/4/2013 8:12:26 P.M.

I want to be in contact with a living breathing family member from that line. The number I have for Bill Felkner is no longer in service. I tried calling him this weekend. I do appreciate all your help in advance. Was there a William Hancock that came through Jamestown in 1619 and was killed in the indian uprising at the Berkley Plantation in 1622? There are lots of Hancocks here in the area where I live in Newport News VA., only about 30 miles from Jamestown. There were lots of Hancocks who were born and lived and died right here in this area who were related to his line if he did, in fact, exist. My line of the family migrated into the Carolinas and into Alabama and then into TX. My grandfather/mother then moved to California and had 3 kids, my father, Henry Grady Hancock,Jr born in Long Beach, a son, Richard Clem Hancock born in Ojai and a daughter born in Los Angeles (who is currently living in Myrtle Creek, OR). I was born in Bend, OR but was raised in CA. I joined the Army in 1977 and traveled the world and ultimately ended up here in Virginia right back here where William and so many of his descendants lived. What a great story I could tell my grandkids (of which I have 5), that I brought my family back full circle to VA where it all began. Henry On 02/04/13, JULIAFWOOD@aol.com wrote Sue, all the files that were posted on the DNA Project were posted by me and are, on my computer. Neither of those names are in my files. They must have been posted on this Hancock list and if so, would be in our archives. No, I don't have Bill or Arvil's email address. Julia In a message dated 2/4/2013 3:27:18 P.M.

In our old DNA records, Henry Grady Hancock and Richard Clem Hancock were in the ancestral line of one of the kits. I've been looking at old postings and I'm pretty sure this is the same line as Bill Felknor and Arvil. Didn't Arvil have his line posted on the DNA site? In postings from July 1999, Helene Pockrus posted a line for Rev. Robert Hancock b. 1719 in Nottoway Co., VA. Her posting shows Benjamin Hancock (b. 1820 Limestone Co., AL) marrying Balsorah Andrews. Richard Clem Hancock (b. 1846 in Limestone Co., AL) was their first son. He was the father of Henry Grady Hancock I. Do you have current email addresses you can share with me offline for Bill Felknor and Arvil? Thanks,Sue in Texas -------------------------------
