The Cocke family came to Virginia in the 1600’s and played a significant part in the colony’s affairs.
Elizabeth married into the Holt family, another prominent family in Williamsburg. Dibdall probably married Elizabeth Cocke roughly 1745 and moved to Amelia County, Virginia, soon after.
They were in Amelia County as early as 1748 when he witnessed the will of William Stone (Amelia WB 1, p.55) and still there in 1762 when he appears on tax list.
They lived in Nottoway Parish, which later become Nottoway County Virginia.
A deed dated December 14, 1751, from Phillip Stone of Johnston County, Virginia, to Charles Connally & Robert Taylor of Nottoway Parish, describes 100 acres in Nottoway Parish adjunct where Dibdall Holt now lives, Charles Connally, Joseph Harper, Robert Taylor's line by the county line, & William Stone's line now Dibdall Holt's (Amelia County, Virginia, DB 4, p.338.)
Dibdall moved to the Natchez District of the Mississippi Territory sometime in the 1770's & settled in an area that later became Jefferson County, Mississippi.

“The Natchez District was one of two areas established in the Kingdom of Great Britain’s West Florida colony during the 1770s - The other being the Tombigbee District. The first Anglo settlers in the district came primarily from other of British America. The district was recognize to be area east of the Mississippi River from Bayou Sara in the south (presently St Francesville, Louisiana and Bayou Pierre in the north (presently Port Gibson, Mississippi).
It became a center of the wealth in the antebellum years ...and the center of cotton culture in the Old Southwest... in the southwest corner of the state of Mississippi.”
