I have recorded some info on this man and I have that his parents were Willis Dockery and Sarah McHaney. Willis' parents were Alexander Dockery and Nancy Ware. Then I have Alexander's parents as George Dockery and Martha Embrey. George's parents were Patrick Allen Dockery and Frances O'Flannery. This information was given to me by a relative of my husband's.
