ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW: COCHREN TREE

Since the DNA test came back and established a link between one generation and the next there has been some reshuffling of assumptions and lines. 

As a result, a daughter was found. Problem is - her grave is harder to find. She married when the family stopped off in Miami Co., Ohio heading west to Indiana from New Jersey.

My COCHREN line now goes from 

  • George Daniel Cochren and wife Annie B. Brown. Had children: Elva, Velma, George Valjean Cochren.
  • Newton Jasper Cochren and his wife Lucinda Drake. Had children: John H., Wm, Charles E., Lydia, Emma, Mary, George D. James I. Cochren.
  • John H. Cochren and his wife Orpha Martha Green. Jad children: Joseph K., Philip, Harriet Emily, Newton Jasper, Marilla J., Levi, John H. Orpha Jane Cochren.
  • Philip Cochren and wife Susannah Martha Sturgis. Had children: Daniel, Hiram, John H., Martha, Lucinda, Malinda, Susannah, James Madison, Marietta/Mary Etta, Philip B. Cochren. 
  • Daniel Cochren of Morris Co., NJ. wife Agnes had children: John, Daniel, Philip, Sarah and Betsey.
Phillip and Susannah settled in Delaware Co., Indiana and their progeny through George Daniel Cochren largely lived in the same area. Newton Jasper took his family to Kansas in the early 1870's when land opened up there.
