Given under my hand and seal on the day above written. Berryman Wren"

Known children:

Daniel and Catherine were listed separately with their parents before they were married, as members of the Goshen Primitive Baptist Church in Wilton, Boone Co., MO.

1840 Census Cedar, Boone Co., MO: "Daniel Willcockan"

Goshen Church record pronounced Daniel deceased in 1847, but Daniel was very much alive. He was transcribed in the Sept. 8, 1850 Census in household 137/137 in Dist. 6, Bates Co., MO, as "Daniel Wilcockson," age 35. He resided with wife "Mary, Pola, Buck, Crisa and Nancy."

There is no proof that Daniel and Catherine were born in Tennessee as this census indicates. Both of their families resided in Clark Co., KY.

After Daniel's parents were deceased, his brother-in-law, John Sappington, was assignee for Daniel's inheritance, November of 1852, indicating that Daniel was deceased between Sep. 8, 1850 and Nov. 1852.

Jan. 15, 1856, Daniel's brother, Samuel Wilcockson, purchased 40 acres next to land "once belonging to Daniel B. Willcockson."

There is no proof that Daniel was buried in the Goshen Cemetery.
