General Notes: Husband - James Hancock


He lived at Wilkes-Barre, Luzerne County, PA, until 1827, at which time he removed to the farm at Plains, in the Wyoming Valley, previously owned by his father, who purchased three farms for him. This property was located about two miles from Wilkes-Barre, and was underlaid with valuable coal deposits. He resided there a number of years, all his children being born at that place. After his second marriage he removed to Wilkes-Barre, and later to Wyoming, Luzerne County, where he died. He had lived in retirement for twenty years previously. [CAB, 449]
