    'The only baptism for a child of Christopher and Margaret Cocke listed in the St. Mary's Coslany registers was an unnamed daughter in 1582. The complete date is not readable, but the entry falls between [---] May and 8 September of that year. The child might be Bridget, as it is not far off her age of 53 as given in the 1637 emigration record. ... Margaret ... left a will dated 27 July 1616 ... Other legatees included daughter Bridget, son-in-law Nicholas Busby, and their children ...'
