Cochran, Any one not absolutely positive of the origin their Cochran surname(might be Cockerham ) interested in the Cockerham DNA project? PhenixLtd@aol.com Lorris G. Cockerham, Ph.D. 3006 Hinson Road Little Rock, AR 72212-2712 501-227-4224 I recently joined the Cockerham DNA ( and similarly pronounced surnames ) project and it showed results that has confirmed my belief that my Benjamin Cockram of Morgan Co. arrived 1806/7 d. 1815 was the same person as Benjamin Cockerham of Lunenburg and Mecklenburg Counties, Va. I matched 12 for 12 on the 12 marker test that were identical with about 5 of the men with Cockerham surnames and 24 or 25 on the 25 marker test. Meaning same ancestor many(x10) centuries ago.
