    1. [HANCOCK-L] Georgia/Texas Hancocks
    2. Am still having a difficult time with my Hancock clan. I just recently learned that my GRGR grandfather moved to Texas from Georgia about 1880 and resided in Dallas County. His name was Augustus Clarence Hancock born 12/1830 in Greene County, GA and died 11/3/1894 in Dallas County, Texas. His first wife (Mary Jane Stephens) died in GA about 1876. Apparently Augustus then married Martha F. ? (born in GA 1852) and he took the following children to Texas with him: 1. Richard H. Hancock b. 1857 2. Augustus F. Hancock b. 1859 3. Lucille Francis Hancock b. 1862 1. Richard married a Loma? about 1888 and they apparently resided in Ellis County, Texas. They are both buried in Midlothian cemetery in Ellis County, Texas. The had the following children: Willie, Vernon, Alice, Susan, Mary, Opal, and Claud (births were from 1889 - 1907) 2. Augustus F. married Jennie ? about 1886 and they too resided in Ellis County. Do not know where they are buried. They had the following children: Fred, Fannie, Clark, Kitty Clyde, Harry, Ruth, Ada P., Frankie M., Jimmie H., and Robert B. (Births were from 1889-1910) 3. Lucy Frances married Thomas Hickey 1880 in Dallas County and she died 1936 in Clay County, Texas. It appears that from Dallas County they moved to Ellis County. Thomas died after 1903 then the family can be found in Clay County, Texas. They had the following children: John, Mary, Augustus C., William, Earnest, Bessie Lee, Nellie, George and Roger. (Births were from 1883 to 1903) The Georgia clan is just as mysterious. It appears that Augustus Clarence's siblings remained in Georgia primarily in Greene, Taliaferro, Oglethorpe, Hancock, Spalding, Polk, Baldwin and Putnam Counties.
