| 29807 | Find-A-Grave memorial number: 172496934 William "Bill" E. Howard of Concord, North Carolina, earned his wings on Saturday, March 12, 2016. Bill died of natural causes at Pruitt Health-Town Center in Harrisburg, North Carolina. Just a week earlier, Bill celebrated his 93rd birthday with family and friends. Bill was born in Concord March 6, 1923, to the late Cyril and Mamie Howard. Bill was preceded in death by his beloved wife of 64 years, Sarah Jane, his son Bruce, and his sisters Seena Murr and Pearl Slough. Bill is survived by daughter Jane Conversano of Concord, North Carolina, her husband Mark, and sons Grant and Adam; son Stuart Howard of Helena, Montana, his wife Kim, and sons Russell and Jake; and daughter-in-law Andrea Carter of Salisbury, North Carolina, Bruce's wife. Bill was the baby boy of the family, and was deservedly spoiled by his mother Mamie, and his sisters Seena and Pearl. He did not however inherit the fishing gene from his parents, who loved to fish so much that they had worm beds in their backyard and never had to buy bait. Bill never ate fish later in life, probably having eaten so much as a youngster. At the age of 15 he earned the Boy Scout rank of Eagle, his certificate signed by Franklin D. Roosevelt. In 1942, at age 19, he was one of 7 out of over 40 applicants that passed the U.S. Army Air Corps Aviation Cadet exam, which he credited to the practical knowledge he gained as a Boy Scout. Bill learned to fly in the Fairchild PT-23. Being too tall for a fighter pilot, he moved on to multi-engine training at Stuttgart, Arkansas, where he flew the Beechcraft AT-10 twin engine trainer, built primarily out of plywood since aluminum was scarce and being conserved for combat aircraft. At Stuttgart, Bill was selected to be a flight instructor, while most of his classmates proceeded to combat training. He eventually taught pilots to fly the heavy bombers such as the B-17, B-24, and B-25. He was destined for B-29 combat training when the war ended. Even though he had offers to fly for the major airlines, Bill returned to Concord to work at the Coca-Cola plant where he eventually became manager and worked for over 40 years. He first set eyes on Sarah Jane Parcell at The Pine Tavern one evening after Sarah Jane's roommate urged her to go out, saying "You never know what will happen." Marriage happily ever after happened on August 5, 1950 and Bill traded his two war surplus airplanes (BT-13 and Howard DGA-15P) for diapers and household appliances. With three children arriving within a four-year span, Bill decided he needed extra income for future college expenses. He scavenged defunct ice plants for compressors, a West Virginia coal mine for pipes, and an out-of-business ice skating rink for ice skates and a skate sharpener. In 1962 Holiday Ice Rink opened in a former garage on Hwy. 29. Bill built a new building in Kannapolis, NC and opened the new location in 1967. For another 30 years Holiday Ice Rink offered a safe and fun environment for youngsters, teenagers, and adults. In 1996 Bill was inducted into the Ice Skating Institute Ice Skating Hall of Fame, whose inductees include Sona Henie, Peggy Fleming, and Gordie Howe. In retirement, Bill and Sarah Jane enjoyed traveling, visiting Ireland, France, and making multiple trips to Montana and the western United States. Bill was also an active member of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Chapter 1083 in Salisbury, North Carolina. He enjoyed flying his Beechcraft Musketeer well into his 80s. A memorial service to celebrate Bill's life was held Friday, March 18, at First Presbyterian Church in Concord, North Carolina, with Senior Pastor Peter Bynum officiating. Memorials in Bill's name may be made to the EAA ASCEND summer camp program, which introduces teenagers to the world of aviation. EAA 1083 ? ASCEND, P.O. Box 44, Salisbury, NC 28145. Memorials may also be made to Ice Skating Institute of America (ISIA) Education Foundation, encouraging skaters to make athletic as well as educational achievements.

Octavia King also a daughter of John C. King and Louisa Jane Venable was married to Commadore Perry Smith a son of Garbiel's. Pricie Smith also a daughter of Gabriel's married Hughes Black she died and Hughes married I believe Susan Emily King also a daughter of my King's. Sylvatus Smith also a son of Garbiel's, married a King daughter also. A lady sent me a picture of Octavia King,and John King i will ask her if it is ok to forward it on to you so that you can put it on your site. Also noticed the names Spence, Shinault and others I still have not had time to check all to see how many names that we do share. My mother was a Mooney do you know which Mooney family the names that you have belong too? Again I have really enjoyed your site. Take Care Pat ----- Original Message ----- From: David Marshall To: JAKNPAT Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2002 10:03 AM Subject: Re: Sparger/King Thanks for all the good information, Pat. It will take me a while to sift through all of it and update my database. Do you mind giving me your name so that I can document the source correctly for this information. If someone asks me later where I got the information I need to be able to tell them something better that "Someone named Pat." Thanks again. David Marshall ----- Original Message ----- From: JAKNPAT To: David Marshall Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2002 6:54 AM Subject: Re: Sparger/King David I am attaching my file on John King and Louisa. I am also attaching my file on Floyd Henry Quesenberry. Floyd was my ggrandfather. I had not completely looked at your surname indes when I first wrote. But I find that I cross with the Alexanders, Kings, Quesenberry's, Richardsons. My ggrandfather William Jackson Richardson married Charlotte V. Alexander sister to Emily Alexander who first (My report is incorrect in that Emily married Floyd first then Susie Browder) Floyd Quesenberry. Blanche Quesenberry my grandmother daughter of Floyd and Susie married Hobert Richardson son of William and Orillie King. (I think I'm my own grandma). The King line also crosses a lot with the Smith family. I noticed you had a lot of Smith's but have not studied it yet to see if there is any connection. To of John C King's daughters married Smith men. Hope you can make heads or tales out of my file. Afraid I put a lot of information into my notes to keep up with it. Take care Pat ----- Original Message ----- From: David Marshall To: JAKNPAT Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2002 11:09 PM Subject: Re: Sparger/King Pat, Thanks very much for the message. You made a connection for me that I didn know about before. I have Nebraska King's parents in my database, but did not have her as one of their children. Her parents came from one source and she came from a completely different source. Jobe Sparger (or Job as I have him) is my second cousin, twice removed. If you would like to send your line to John And Louisa I would be pleased to add it to my database. One trick I use to make out hard to read names is to use a good magnifying glass. It is surprising how many times I have been able to make out something that way that I could not read without it. Thank you again for the message. I look forward to hearing from you again soon. May I add you to my email distribution list? I don't send out very many messages to the list, but I do occasionally send out something I think everyone might like to read. I have about 200 "cousins" in the list. David Marshall ----- Original Message ----- From: JAKNPAT To: David@marshallgenealogy.org Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2002 12:38 PM Subject: Sparger/King David Found your website and thought I had hit the jackpot. You are researching so many of the same lines that I am. Jobe W. Sparger married Nebraska King also a daughter of Louise Jane Venable and John C. King. They also had another daughter Arillie King who married my great grandfather William Richardson. Nebraska and Arillie were born in Pulaski County Va . I know that one of Louisa Jane's children went to Indiana because on the 1910 carroll county Va. census two grandchildren both male are living with them. I cannot make out the names would love to know who they belonged too. Any information appreciated. Thanks Pat | SMITH, Pricie Virginia (I39011)

| 29843 | From Corbett Cockerh am 1771-1879 Index Surry Co. NC Deeds: Hardin & wife to Hardin Copeland deed book 5p.415 NOTES FROM FRANK E. COCKERHAM: A conjecture was made that "Henry" Cockerham who married Fanny Greenwell on 8 January 1831 (Nathaniel Barker bondsman) was the youngest son of Humphrey. The actual marriage bond shows that it was Hardin Cockerham who made application to marry Fanny Greenwell and that bond was given by Harden Cockerham and Nathaniel Barker. In the place that the clerk wrote the bondsman's names for them to sign their mark, he mistakenly wrote Henry instead of Harden. Harden Cockerham appeared in the 1834 Tax Lists of Wilkes County in John Holloway's list, along with presumed brothers Martin, Moses and James. No Wilkes county Cockerhams were listed outside of this tax district. Harden Cockerham was listed for 100 acres valued at $50, and was taxed for no white or black polls. One might conjecture that he only became 21 late in the year and hence married under age in 1831, or perhaps his heath was so poor that he was excused from the poll tax. The 1837 Tax List of Wilks County, made out in May 1838, did not list Harden Cockerham. In 1839, Harden Cockerham was located in Floyd County Kentucky; one male over 21 years. | COCKERHAM, Hardin (I23732)

| 29844 | From Corbett Cockerham !NOTES FROM FRANK E. COCKERHAM: To the south of James Cockerham's {property} was Martin Cockerham who made entry 3535 for 50 acres on 10 March 1829; see the tract labelled "Martin 1". It should be noted that the southeast corner of that tract was "a pine in Humphrey Cockerham's old line." Since Martin was on the 1829 tax list for 100 acres, he obviously owned another 50 acres that were not in the deed books. In 1849 Martin made another land entry to describe his holdings adjacent to James Cockerham and the Nathaniel Barker tract, and the resulting NC grant 5487 is shown as "Martin 2" in figure 2. The tract labelled "M3" was a later acquisition by Martin. Martin combined tracts "Martin2" and "M3" in a deed to his son James Cockerham in 1855 ( Deed Book S-473). !Marshall 0237, p. 1 | COCKERHAM, Martin (I23755)

| 29846 | From Corbett Cockerham Ed Bates to MDV 1991: Marriage bond signed by William Talby and David Cockerham. Rose Taulbee: "Nancy died August 14, 1837 of what was called "Miasma", this was a disease caused from breathing a deadly gas that came up out of the marshes at night. Hundreds of settlers died of it in this area of IL. Their son Martin Cockerham died a year after his mother, age 19. William, Nancy and Martin are buried on a bluff on the left side of Big Ramsey Creek, near Boaz Bridge, nine miles north of Vandalia on the old Shelbyville Road. We have found this place but not the graves, some from Kentucky came in 1929 and found the site but subsequent owners destroyed the graveyard." MDV: "Uncle Breck's (William Breckenridge Taulbee) grandson found the graves in 1929." (MAC: I should note that almost all of Rose's correct information on this line of the Taulbees came from MDV) June Hurst said "Nancy was born in Rowan County. Her mother went there to have her baby." June Hurst was the wife of Ceasar Hurst who, with June, was a diligent researcher and wrote a book about the Hursts. June also was a descendent of Daniel Duff. When she became infirm (about 1993), she "gave her records" to her nephew. | COCKERHAM, Nancy (I24534)

| 29847 | From Corbett Cockerham Humphrey Cockerham's neighbor on the west side in the 1820's was son-in-law John Thornton, who died in 1827 and left Susannah with 686 acres according to the 1829 tax list. In the Febuary 1830 court, Susannah's administrative bond for the estate was renewed with Moses Cockerham as security in place of John Thornton. It does not appear that Humphrey gave any land to Susannah Cockerham Thornton, perhaps because she was relatively prosperous. The definition of the Thornton Tracts can be found in Deed Book M-537 through M-542, and Z-141 through 143. In the 1840 census, the household of Susannah Thornton listed a female aged 70-80 years who may have been her mother {or mother- in-law) the widow of Humphrey Cockerham. In the 1870 census, Susannah was aged 70. After John Thornton's heirs divided his land, it became apparent that at least the northern half of William Parson's entry 1877 had become Thornton property, and on figure 2 it is labelled "Z-143", for it's deedbook/ page description. It was immediately west of Humphrey's tract at the head of Bunker Branch which is included in the tract labelled "Z-242". Deed Book Z shows that Meredith Barker was selling the tract to Meredith Thornton in 1862. Meredith Barker was a son of Millie Cockerham Barker, but evidence has not been found that the property decended from Humphrey to Millie to Meredith Barker. | COCKERHAM, Susanna (I23756)

| 29848 | From Corbett Cockerham NOTES FROM A LETTER FROM FRANK E. COCKERHAM 10/15/97 I have since learned from a reader of the articles that decendants of Abel Sparks and Sarah "Cockran" believe that Sarah's father was Humphrey Cockran or Cockerham of Wilkes County because Abel Sparks was living on contiguous property to Humphrey on 25 Jan, 1800 ( Deed book GH pg.26); and on 12 Dec 1801 a deed from Humphrey to Abel Sparks was made for 150 acres for 100 pounds (Deed Book F1 p. 183)... Notes from Dorothy L. Creely in a e-mail Nov. 1 1997: My ancestor, Sarah Cockerham, born abt.1780 in Wilkes Co. NC probably married Abel Sparks in Wilkes Co. abt. 1800. They moved about 1807 to Franklin Co. TN, then to Bond Co. Illinois about 1820, finally settling in Grant Co. Wisconsin about 1832. I have the feeling she is the daughter of Daniel Cockerham Jr. She is a cousin of Francis Cockerham Hurt. (maybe).... My notes on Abel Sparks is quite complete. | COCKRAN, Sarah (I24289)

| 29850 | From Corbett Cockerham THE FOLLOWING NOTES SUPPLIED BY FRANK E. COCKERHAM: Two days after John Cockerham made an unsuccessful claim in entry 1289, William Cockerham made an unsuccessful claim in entry 1290 in the very same area in which John would later recieve his grant; see fig.1. I believe this William to be the son of { Elder} Humphrey. William Cockerham did not appear in the census of 1820 presumably because he was in the household of his father Humphrey. William briefly owned land on the Roaring River; 100 acres purchased 21 September 1816 (24-177) and sold 1 November 1917. (24-220). Both deeds were witnessed by William Taulbee, a person with whom William Cockerham was often associated. William and Elisabeth "Cockrum" of Owsley [Co. KY] household 192 were ages 56 and 54 respectively in the 1850 census. Their Oldest Child was James, born 1822 in NC, who married Emily Stamper. The year of birth of their first child James, is consistent with the hypothesis that this William and Elisabeth were the participants in the Wilkes County marriage of 29 march 1821 of William Cockerham and Elisabeth Hill with Samuel Parsons as bondsman (Holcomb). Note that Sameul Parsons was the adjoining neighbor to John Cockerham on fig. 1. William Cockerham died before the 1860 census, survived by his widow Elisabeth and living with Martin in the 1860 census, probably on their farm which became part of Breathitt County by 1860. Their sons were James, Humphrey, William M., Martin, John Miles, Elijah and Daniel Duff, according to Mary DeBusk Voth. All these sons appear in either James household 191 or William's household 192 in the 1850 census except Humphrey. In the Wilkes County tax lists, William Cockerham was taxed as a poll, but without acreage. 1840 Census Breathitt Co.
