Cocks baronets, of Dumbleton (1662)
The Cocks family of Castleditch, Eastnor, Herefordshire acquired Dumbleton by marriage in the sixteenth century and the manor passed to a junior branch of the family. On the death of the fourth baronet possession of the estate reverted to Charles Cocks esq. of Castleditch.[1]
- Sir Richard Cocks, 1st Baronet (Шаблон:Circa–1684) was the second son of Richard Cocks of Castleditch.[1] He married Susanna, daughter of Ambrose Elton of Ledbury, Herefordshire and his wife Anne, a daughter of Sir Edward Aston of Tixall, Staffordshire. As a young man he was part of a diplomatic mission to Muscovy, but thereafter lived the life of a country gentleman, serving as a justice of the peace and as high sheriff of Gloucestershire in 1665–6.[2] He was created a baronet in 1666.[1]
- Sir Richard Cocks, 2nd Baronet (c. 1659–1726)

Having acquired his doctorate, he became rector of Great Rollright in 1695 and Woodstock in 1715.[3] He married Anne Fulks of Oxford with whom he had 7 sons and 5 daughters.[1] He succeeded his brother as baronet in 1726.
