Hello Donna, I believe that William Cockerham married a daughter of Nathaniel Stewart, named Betsy Stewart. This is my Stewart/Stuart line.I have been in conant with Teresa Bell about this.On the 1800 Greenville Co Sc census, I find #184, Edward Stewart, #185, William Cochram, #186 is Nathaniel Stewart.Nathaniel and Edward Stewart moved from the Surry Co NC/Henry Co VA area to Greenville Co Sc by April of 1795.The Stewarts also had a neighbor named Moses Cockerham who was involved with us in several land deeds, as was a James Cockerha.As a matter of fact Charles Stewart sold land in Patrick Co VA and James Cockerham witnesed the deed, this was 1812. By 1812 Charles Stewart was in Bunco,be Co NC living near his father Nathaniel and uncle Edward.I alos have land deeds in Buncombe with William Cockerham and the Stewarts. Now to top it all off, E. B: Prater married a daughter of William Cockerham. E. B. Prater was the son of Nancy Stewart and William Parter. Nancy Stewart was the daughter of Edward Stewart.Sound familiar?
