Hello,


While trying to research possible Coykins/Quelkin families of Cornwall and Devonshire, I came across a page on internet that publishes certain materials, said to have been copied from an investigation done in 1893 in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. It
includes information on various lines from England, including one of White, and one of Connock.

It is not clear where all the information for these families was found, if it is based on documents from England for descendants established in Spain.

In particular, I am interested in the Connock and Coykin.

The Connock family described in the documents seems to correspond to the family of Richard Connock Rowe.

According to this site, http://reynolds.com.es/Los%20Esteban.htm, his parents were John Connock of Tresvorgey. According to what the sie says, John was born at Liskeard, Cornwall, and married Joana Rowe, daughter of William Rowe of "Lanvake" or Lamvake.

At least Richard Connock's biography is available at

http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1604-1629/member/connock-richard-1560-1620#footnote3_87qkqif

since we was MP. He is said to have been born in 1560.

The History of Parliament page says that Richard's father was John, a successful tanner from Wiltshire, who moved to Cornwall and became receiver of the duchy, and that his mother was Joan, daughter of William Rowe of Landrake, Cornwall. The site also
says that John was mayor of Liskeard.

I have not been able to find more information on John's parents yet.

However, the Esteban page says John Connock was the son of one Thomas Connock and of Joan Coykin, daughter of John Coykin.

The site appears to suggest that the Coykin, Rowe, Connock and Rowe were at least armigers. It tends to give them a higher social status than what appears to be the case, but I would like to know if there was such a Coykin family. The site mentions
that John Coykin had properties at Liskeard, Harwood and Wodhill.

The information for the parents of Richard Connock appears to come from Visitations of Cornwall: Vis. Cornw. (Harl. Soc. ix), 46; Cornw. RO, P126/1/1, pp. 53, 57, 176, 186.)

I do have a Thomas Williams of Stowford but he died in 1566
That seems a little long to be the father of a woman who didn't die until 1633

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

I see that Richard Cole, son of Joan, was Heir "aged 28 and more" 1596
Also that Thomas Williams of Stowford (d 1566) had another daughter in my database

Thomasine /Williams/
m
Francis /Buller/ of Shillingham

Thomasine did not die until 1627 so that makes me more comfortable that this is the exact same Thomas

Ancestral by the way to Princess Diana through the Viscount Hamilton and the Buller family of Morval

Philip Cole himself descends from Edward I

But the most shocking realization is that Radigon Boscawen "second daughter"
is here stated to have married secondly to

William /Cooke/ of Highnam, co Glouc j.u.; Knt 1603; Ho
(1572-1619)
First surviving son of

William /Cooke/ of St Martin in the Fields, co Mdx; Ho
by
Frances /Grey/

he descends from Edward III

however from his aunt Mildred Cooke's marriage to
William Cecil , 1st Baron /Burghley/ 1571-1598; DW*

William Cooke himself (who m firstly Joyce Lucy) has a Cecil number of 4
So Radigon is a 5

It's been a long time since I've had a new 5

Yes. It seems that the family was rather short in details for the first generation, starting with John.

The page on John from the Parliament site seems to quote from a source regarding him, not in favorable way, but does not specify anything for his possible parents. It does mention he owned a manor, but perhaps he purchased it. It does say that he was
granted arms in 1577, but by then he had been at Liskeard for more than 40 years. It does not say that he came from anywhere.

The arms described in the visitation are the one shown in the Spanish site.

The visitation edition has a note about a line in Spain claiming to be descendants of George Connock. The Spanish page mentions one George Connock, http://reynolds.com.es/Los%20Esteban.htm, but it seems there is a generation missing there, or some
confusion. In particular, it says that George was born at Breda in 1649 and that he was at the service of the French army.

The annotated copy of the visitation has one George Connock, living in 1619, and mentioned as Captain, who married to Mary Dodson, daughter of Thomas Dodson of St. Yves.

A note in the visitation publication says that the Spanish Connocks claimed to be descendants of Captain George.

I really haven't searched Spanish archives online to see if they might contain any documentation on this line, and in particular a copy of the grant of arms said to have been made in 1577.

Following up on the Connocks, the same Spanish website states that information on the older generations came from a certification of arms from 1773 by the king of arms, Charles Townley. It seems to be for the White family, and possibly for the Connocks.
The site says it was requested by Jose Connock White, who was in the Spanish armies and was knight of Santiago. Apparently, he had inherited some claims to imperial titles of count of Albi and marquis of Albilbille (or Albiville from the White family.

The Spanish archives at Pares do have an entry regarding these titles:
Supplied title:O'Callaghan, JuliánReference number:CONSEJOS,L.2757,F.136V
Date of creation:1725
Level of description:

But what I am trying to follow would not be related to those families.

The page of HOP does say that John appears to have been a yeoman from Wiltshire and that he settled in Cornwall as a young man.

Therefore, I don't know if what the Spanish site says about his parents is correct.

I guess his arms are what they were granted in 1577, without existing before.

And coming back to the Coykins, there seem to have some properties but much earlier, and the town or place for one of them is not specified.

https://ia600200.us.archive.org/30/items/cu31924011387820/cu31924011387820.pdf

Entry 300 is for Nicholas de Trenoda, apparently partly from an inquisition at Liskeret in the 33rd year of the reign of Edward I
It mentions Trewynon in relation to William de Bodrigan
and Trenoda in relation to sir John de Ripariis (he may have mentioned before in relation to the Bulkeleys and Ripariis)
The name of the location concerning sir Roland de Coykin is missing, but the manor of Fowyton is named.

From the time of Roland to the next mentions of Coykins is a long time
and from that to supposed mother of John Connock is also quite some time.

There is definitely a temporal disconnect here. The Esteban pedigree makes Jorge (i.e. George) born 1649 the son of Juan (John) born 1552. Per Vivian's pedigree, George, son of John was an adult with children in 1619, which is terribly precotious for

someone only born 30 years later.

There seems to be two generations missing.

Definitely. It may a mistake on the transcription, or it could be errors in the original documents, which are not available online.

I have just noticed that when Joan married secondly John Buller of Lillesdon she was marrying what could be considered a relation. Her *sister* Thomasine, had married his first cousin once removed Francis Buller of Shillingham

It now make more sense why Joan would write her will in 1621 when she did not die until 1633

Not only was she contesting the will of Richard Connock, but apparently there was not a little bitterness about not getting those things willed to her, and having to even buy her own household goods from the estate. She probably wrote her will "in spite"
so she could record for all eternity the wrongs done her.

The HOP bio of Richard Connock does say " his marriage had brought him the use of a substantial estate in Somerset, Devon and Cornwall".

Note the word "use". It's not clear whether he actually ever owned Lillesdon, as the 1613 document you separately cited says that he was petitioning for a lease of Lillesdon, and it also says at the end that "It has not been determined if Richard
Connock’s petition was successful, but both he and his wife continued to reside at Lillesdon until their deaths."

Nothing particularly odd about two HOP entries for the same man. He served in the period covered by the 1558-1603 volume and also in the period covered by the 1604-1627 volume. There are many MPs who appear in more than one volume of HOP.

The 1558-1603 volume was the first HOP volume published, way back in 1981. The 1604-1629 volume was published in 2010 and had the benefit of further and deeper research - hence the longer biography for the MP in question.

I just realized, re-reading that we are being given the exact date of the license for Joan (Williams) to marry John Buller "8 Mar 1596/7"

Admon on his estate was given her in Oct 1599, so that seems to narrow her possible remarriage to Richard Connock to 1599/1620

However, the petition of his, regarding the lease of Lillesdon is dated in this article to Nov 1612
referring to ‘James 1 – volume 71: November 1612’, in Calendar of State Papers Domestic: James I, 1611-18

Thanks for the information.

I am still looking around for the Coykins to see if it is possible to confirm that the Connock family did have a connection to a Coykin family, possible from Cornwall or Devonshire. I was able to find online at familysearch.org a scanned copy of the
investigation files for the Spanish Connock that became Knight of Santiago in the 1700s. Unfortunately, it does not bring a copy of the grant of arms and it stops short of connecting his line to Cornwall. It starts in Ireland with his grandfather, who
has the same name as one shown in the Visitation, but might be a son of the older gentleman. There seems to have been a grant of arms from the reign of Elizabeth I, and I am hoping if it still exists and it can be found somewhere, it might still show
the name of the parents and perhaps some grandparents even if they were not armigers.

Hello,

I am still searching for a possible grant of arms to this family, apparently made in the 1570s.

In the meantime, I found just a little bit of information about a Cokayn family, apparently from Cornwall, from the 1440s.
The better known member would be one Thomas Cokayn, who appears to have studied law and practiced it in the 1430s and 1440s, ending up at London, where he was recorded. He was also MP at least twice for Lostwithiel and Bodmin.

https://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1386-1421/constituencies/lostwithiel

Nothing is known of his ancestry, or if he was an armiger. Apparently his family was from Lostwithiel.

His will is mentioned in the biography, and apparently he had no surviving brothers or children, but he did have three sisters mentioned in the will in 1440, and one of them was married to a Condorou. The biography page mentions his heir, a nephew, one
Nicholas Condorov [sic].

There is some speculation that he may have been related to Henry Cokayn or Cokyn, who was from or lived at Lostwithiel, and was feodary in Cornwall in 1369 and 1370.

There is some information on this Henry, but not a lot about his family or possible descendants. For example, he is mentioned in Cornwall and the Kingdom: Connectivity, Cohesion, and Integration, c. 1300-c. 1420
by Samuel John Drake Royal Holloway, University of London. Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2017, p 287.

I do not know if this Henry had arms, and if they are known.

Following up on this topic, I have not been able to find anything on what arms Henry or his relatives may have used, or on the arms for Thomas Cokayne either, but there is a Thomas Cokyn (or very similar surname) listed in Thomas Jenyns Book of Arms,
as far as I can tell.

There is a copy available online at Yale, and the description says the manuscript is dated from 1510 to 1525, and apparently there are other copies, possibly not identical.

APA, 6th edition Ordinary of arms : Thomas Jenyns book. (0 C.E.). [Coats of arms--England--16th century.aat, Manuscripts, Medieval--England--16th century., Manuscripts, Renaissance--England--16th century.].

https://collections.library.yale.edu/catalog/16161080.

I haven't found the exact folio for Thomas Cokyn, but the description appears in

ANTIQUARY: A MAGAZINE DEVOTED TO THE STUDY OF THE PAST. EDITED BY EDWARD WALFORD, M.A. FORMERLY SCHOLAR OF BALLIOL COLLEGE, OXFORD, AND LATE EDITOR OF THE "GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE; AUTHOR OF THE "COUNTY FAMILIES," ETC. ETC

Vol 2, which can be consulted online at https://electricscotland.com/history/antiquary/antiquary02.pdf

It is listed as entry #132, and the arms are described as bendy of gules and argent, in six pieces, which are similar, but different, from the arms of Reginald Coykin.

I have no idea who was this armigerous Thomas Cokyn or where he lived. I assume before 1525, but I do not know the sources of this compilation. Does anybody know?

Thanks. Found it. According to studies on this particular ordinary of arms, it appears to have been completed before 1400, with most of the entries that can be dated from the reign of Edward III or earlier. I suppose that makes likely that this Thomas
Cokyn may have lived in that period.

There seem to be at least two other shorter lists, but with differences and without Christian names.

And following up on these confusing Cokyn and Cokayn and Cokaynes, there is also available at Google Books, a copy of Collections Towards a Description of the Country of Devon, By Sir William Pole · 1791, which though a late publication, it is
described as a publication of much earlier works by sir William Pole, knight and antiquary of Devon, who died in 1651. Among his manuscripts there seems to have survived a list of blasons for people from or related to the county, and also a list of
people worth mentioning. Page 81 in particular shows a list, whose order is not specified, listing various men, including short descriptions or notes. For example, Nicholas Martin, a judge in the King's Bench, John Halfe, a younger brother of this
family, bishop of Coventry & Lichfield, and right in that block, one Thomas Cokayn, for which nothing is said!
The next entry is for one Nicholas Ashton, a judge of the King's Bench,.

Then, on page 475, the list of arms, shows "Cokayn, Bende of 6 Ermine and geules"

Hello,

While trying to research possible Coykins/Quelkin families of Cornwall and Devonshire, I came across a page on internet that publishes certain materials, said to have been copied from an investigation done in 1893 in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. It

includes information on various lines from England, including one of White, and one of Connock.

It is not clear where all the information for these families was found, if it is based on documents from England for descendants established in Spain.

In particular, I am interested in the Connock and Coykin.

The Connock family described in the documents seems to correspond to the family of Richard Connock Rowe.

According to this site, http://reynolds.com.es/Los%20Esteban.htm, his parents were John Connock of Tresvorgey. According to what the sie says, John was born at Liskeard, Cornwall, and married Joana Rowe, daughter of William Rowe of "Lanvake" or Lamvake.

At least Richard Connock's biography is available at

http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1604-1629/member/connock-richard-1560-1620#footnote3_87qkqif

since we was MP. He is said to have been born in 1560.

The History of Parliament page says that Richard's father was John, a successful tanner from Wiltshire, who moved to Cornwall and became receiver of the duchy, and that his mother was Joan, daughter of William Rowe of Landrake, Cornwall. The site also

says that John was mayor of Liskeard.

I have not been able to find more information on John's parents yet.

However, the Esteban page says John Connock was the son of one Thomas Connock and of Joan Coykin, daughter of John Coykin.

The site appears to suggest that the Coykin, Rowe, Connock and Rowe were at least armigers. It tends to give them a higher social status than what appears to be the case, but I would like to know if there was such a Coykin family. The site mentions

that John Coykin had properties at Liskeard, Harwood and Wodhill.

The information for the parents of Richard Connock appears to come from Visitations of Cornwall: Vis. Cornw. (Harl. Soc. ix), 46; Cornw. RO, P126/1/1, pp. 53, 57, 176, 186.)

a recent work

available at

Cornwall and the Kingdom: Connectivity, Cohesion, and Integration, c. 1300-c. 1420

Samuel John Drake Royal Holloway, University of London Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2017

brings some notes about one sir Roland Coykin or Coykin, who held some lands in Cornwall, and possibly Devon.

Apparently, he was from Somerset, and I don't know if he had descendants or relatives in those counties.

The author list him as follows, on page 289
Roland Coykyn, de - Knight of the Shire, 1307 MPs, 27
with the following notes:
Coykyn held some land in Cornwall, but it seems that he hailed from Somerset (FA, i, 200).

The sources given are

MPs, = MPs Return of Members of Parliament, 2 parts in 4 vols (London, 1878-91), i part 1

FA = Inquisitions and Assessments Relating to Feudal Aids, 1284-1431, 6 vols, HMSO (London, 1899-1920)

I guess this means he was MP and there should be a short biography of him.

In the same work, the author mentions, on page 287, one Henry Cokyn, living in 1369-70, from Lostwithiel,

Henry Cokyn Feodary, 1369-71 SC6/818/1 m. 19r
with the following notes:
Cokyn hailed from Lostwithiel (FF, i, 408-409); he served as reeve of Lostwithiel Manor in 1359-60 (DCO 13); he, along with several other townsmen, allegedly deprived Richard Cosyn of a tenement in Lostwithiel in 1366 (JUST1/1476 m. 72v).

I don't know if Roland and Henry were related or if they had descendants in Cornwall or Devonshire.

The arms of Roland Quinkin (Coykin) are shown at

http://www.aspilogia.com/G-Segars_Roll/G-057-108.html

with the note that he died in 1319.

Apparently, Cokinges or Cokingues is yet another spelling for the same surname.

There is one Jean Cokinges, captain of St. Sauveur under sir John Chandos, mentioned in a few publications, including this one

Le compte des recettes et dépenses du roi de Navarre en France et en Normandie de 1367 a 1370 By Charles II (King of Navarre),

Eugene Izarn, editor, published in· 1885

On p. 319, it mentions him:

"A Jehan Cokinges cappitaine de St Sauveur et procureur en ceste partie de Messire Jehan Chandos en deduction et acquit de la dessus dicte somme de xv frans par quittance dudit Cokinges du xxvie jour de novembre CCCLXVIII avec coppie de sa procuration
pour le terme de la Toussains oudit an v frans."

He also appears in a few accounts, and even in a dictionary:
Dictionnaire du Moyen Français (1330-1500)
...certains restes de raencons deuz au chastel de Saint- Sauveur (...) que Monseigneur fist lever par ses gens par le consentement de Jehan Cokingues, cappitaine de Saint-Sauveur, affin que le païz en fust moins grevé (Compte Navarre I.P., 1367-1371,
36).

which takes us to the book of accounts of the Kings of Navarre.

Volume 2 of Bedfordshire Notes and Queries, published in 1889, and available through Google Books, brings a few Cokinges, and the author apparently makes that surname another version of Cokayne. See for example page 341 where we see a three Cokinges
at Cardington, in the very late 1500s, followed by Cokayne ub the 1630s. Another surname that may be related to those families is Beaumont, listed on page 342..
.

Does anybody has information of these Cokinges?
