Cochran that you found there in MO. I have been trying to find a William Cochran that is the brother of my grandfather, Charles A. Cochran. They were both in a home for boys in Hartford, CT during the 1880 Census. They were both shipped west and Charles wound up in Iowa. I though that William went to NE, but have found no trace of him. William was born around 1871 in Meriden, CT. Charles was born in 1874 in the same area. Charles wound up in Iowa and South Dakota and then back to Indiana where he died (1953). He is buried in Rose Lawn Cemetery, Terre Haute, IN. Thanks for your help Howard Cochran
