- A Richard Coppock appeared in a suit for recovery of Lands in Allricham, Northenden, co. Cheshire, England in 1546 in the Plea Rolls. That would estimate his birth date as previous to 1526, and a possible contemporary of Geoffery Coppoco of Cheshire. Richard Coppock was born of Morley, Wilmslow Par., Cheshire, ENG bef 1545. This source of Elizabeth Harris's information on Richard Coppocke and John Coppock down to Bartholomew Coppock comes from fairly recent parish research by Corinne Hanna Diller, on the Coate/Coppock Family. It is Corrine's best guess based on parish records of Wilmslow, Cheshire, Eng. Her address is 8443 Sonneville Dr., Houston, TX 77080-3638. (C-613) It is possible, even likely, that Richard’s siblings were Hugh, William, and possibly Raphe. They are males of his age having children christened in the 1560-1570s in Wilmslow Parish, Cheshire, England. (C-204)
Annie Natalelli-Waloszek has a copy of the original and very hard to read will of Richard of Keckwicke, d 1592. He might be this same Richard who was in Northenden in 1546, though this is a guess. She transcribes it as follows: "Richard of Keckwicke 1592, wife Ellen, bros John and (rambo, cambo, cante, cance) ............ Anno Dei 1591, I Richard Coppocke of Keckwicke......(sicke of bodie but of perfecte memory, laud) and praise be to almighty god...

He was listed as a husbandman or farmer at the time of his death. It is conjecture on her part that the Richard who married Margaret is the son of the Richard who died in 1592, because the age is correct and they both were of Keckwick. (C-2250E)
