Janes Frances Harris, a daughter of John and Jerusha Harris, was born in Yellowstone, July 3rd, 1854, and passed from this life at the age of 68 years and eleven months. She lived at home with her parents until her marriage to N.H. Cockings which took place Dec. 22nd, 1875. To them, seven children were born, five of whom survive. They are: Mrs. John Skinner and Mrs. Chas. Gratton, Waldwick, Frank and Carl Cockings, Fayette, and Mrs. Carl Gant, Yellowstone. Besides the sorrowing husband and children, deceased leaves three sisters, Mrs. J.B. Reynolds, Mineral Point, Mrs. Fred Dawe of Brookfield, Mo., Melvina Harris of Yellowstone, and two brothers, J.H.

Mrs. Cockings was a member of the Waldwick ME church, having affiliated with that church in early childhood.
