Excerpt from History and Genealogy of the Cock Cocks Cox Family: Descended From James and Sarah Cock of Killingworth Upon Mantinecock, in the Township of Oysterbay, Long Island, New York
As the type of the first edition was about to be distributed there was found to be a greater demand for the work as relating to the descendants of James Cock the Quaker ancestor, 'and as it had proved impracticable to include in the first edition a number of lineages of allied families already in preparation, it has been thought advisable to issue a further edition of 105 copies. To that which has already appeared in the first edition is added a supplement of 71 pages of new matter, for the contents of which see page 404. In this is included all the corrections. And new data regarding our Family which an active correspondence could secure.

Excerpt from History and Genealogy of the Cock Cocks Cox Family: Descended From James and Sarah Cock of Killingworth Upon Mantinecock, in the Township of Oysterbay, Long Island, New York
To the descendants of James and Sarah (?Clarke) Cock, these Presents come greeting, trusting that their compilation during the intermittent opportunities of leisure, amid the urgency of business life, may be of some satisfaction to all both lineal and collateral. This work was commenced by the elder compiler about 1880, without any definite expectation of publication, but on becoming acquainted, through correspondence, with the younger, arrangements were made for charting our collection in such form, that if ever we or any other parties should desire to commit to print, such plan would greatly facilitate its accomplishment. By a diligent correspondence throughout several years, many of our charts were well filled, but before the close of the nineteenth century, by pressing business engagements on our part and decadent interest of our correspondents, communications almost entirely ceased; and when in 1911 the opportunity of publication came, our addresses were many of them out of date and useless. The compilers hereof have used freely all accessible public and private records; have been favored with assistance from sundry co-workers in the genealogical field, and as they are a legion, to name some and not all would seem invidious; we therefore hereby acknowledge our obligations to all and singular.
By our collaboration with Rev. Henry M. Cox we are enabled to accomplish our long cherished desire of publication, and now trusting that our efforts have not been in vain, we commend it to your sympathic consideration.
