I recently obtained from the Maryland State Archives a copy of two Chancery Court case from 1813 & 1815 in Harford Co., MD. There are 167 pages of court records and deposition concerning the ownership of several parcels of land in Harford Co. It named the heirs of John Chocke who died ca 1765. Among those mentioned is Sarah wife of Thomas McGough. Her mother is identified as Martha Chocke, daughter of John Chocke. Martha's three husbands are also named but, unfortunately, which one is Sarah's father is not stated. My best guess is Henry James. Below is the info I have managed to gleen from these documents.
John Chocke d. before 24 Jun 1765
m. Mary
Children: I. Martha Chocke
m.1 Alexander Smith
m.2 Henry James
Children: 1. Henry James
2. Thomas James
3. Sarah James
m. Thomas McGough
4. Nancy James
m. Henry Hare
m.3 Robert Heaps
Children: 1. Robert Heaps
2. John Heaps
3. Abraham Heaps
4. Pyscias Heaps
5. Priscilla Heaps
Note: Not sure about the father of Sarah and Nancy. They are listed in these court documents by their married name Sarah McGough wife of Thomas McGough and Nancy Hare wife of Henry Hare. On most pages they seem to be grouped with Henry & Thomas James. Sarah & Thomas McGough also named a son Henry & did not use the name Alexander or Robert. So, I’m guessing the father of Sarah & Nancy is Henry James.
