Who is Jock????
« on: Sunday 10 September 06 22:27 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Would anyone actually be named Jock or is it an affectionate term for something else - John, James etc.?

I'm looking for Jock Ashley born Huntingdon area probably between 1900 and 1910 - I don't think there is a scottish connection.

thanks for your help

I think Jock is a Scottish form of John or a nickname for anyone Scottish.
