Leonard West, early family historian, believed that Joseph West of Frederick County (now Montgomery Co.), Maryland, was the son of Totopotomoy ("Toby") West and Cockacoeske.

William Deyo, official Pamunkey tribal historian, said, "The more that I search, the more that I find items in support of Leonard's theory. Note that Joseph West was at one time a resident of Stafford Co., VA, and was associated with Maj. John West, formerly "Capt. John West" who appeared in Stafford by 1678 and was, I am convinced by overwhelming evidence, the same Capt. John West who was the illegitimate son of Cockacoeske, Queen of Pamunkey, by John West, son of Gov. John West (brother of Thomas West, Lord De la Warr)."
