He shows up in the 1880 census of Larwence County Missouri with his wife Isabelle (Chidester)who he married in Perry County Missouri in 1874. I found a George Cochran in the same marriage book but can't make a connection. Hiram was born in AR but, his folks both from ILL. I also found William B. Cochran and John A. Cochran close in Larwence County but can't find a connection. Hiram was born in 1848 and died in 1884. His folks might have been from the Jefferson County ILL area but can't make connection. I also have looked in the AR areas but no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Hiram was a blacksmith and barber.
