Bob: I don't know his middle name. Ancestor is MASS William Hancock m Elizabeth..... 1756-1841 or thereabouts..My bro has my papers to copy and I'm not certain..he is listed PVT Mass RW patriot along with Francis TURPIN... My Francis Hancock's parents were John G. Hancock m Anis TUrpin. "Anny" Hancock showed up with Francis and Eliz Poor hancock in Garrard Co,KY census 1810, . probably widowed Francis and Eliz Poor Hancock had children: John and Sadona-- and who know who else?!. Any ideas/ clues? Alicia
