| + | Peachey & Turton ((//War in the West: The Fall of the West vol 3 pp 361-2// Stuart Peachey & Alan Turton (1993) Stuart Press. ISBN 1858040353)) give this colonel as probably Francis. However the Journals of both the House of Commons and the Lords. ((//Journals of the House of Commons, Volume 4, p.137// and //Journals of the House of Lords, Volume 7, p.364//)) and several later pay claims (see below) suggest it was John. | ||
| + | |||
| + | There are a number of possibilities here: | ||
| + | *Two separate regiments one commanded by Francis & one by John - (However the histories and possible officers of the two overlap.) | ||
| + | *A single regiment commanded by first Francis and then John - (However there is no evidence for a second Cocker amongst the regiments officers) | ||
| + | *Francis, for whom no rank is given in the sources cited by Peachey & Turton, was not the regiments commander. | ||
| + | *Francis commanded the Plymouth Trained Band, but when a volunteer regiment was formed it was under John. | ||
