The following is the obituary of Eliza Ann Cochran. I am searching for her four sisters and one brother, but especially the sisters. They must have lived in Chautauqua Co., NY at one time, since Eliza Ann is listed being baptized at the Presbysterian Church in Westfield, NY in 1827 and joining the church in the 1830's. This is her obituary from the Gary Interstate (Newspaper) at Gary, SD on Sept 7, 1888. Mrs. Eliza Cochrane died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Oliver, in the fillage last Monday morning September 3rd, after being confined to her bed for twenty months. She was born in Westfield, Chautauqua County, New York, September 17th 1824, and hence with ??????? at the time of her death. She was converted and joned the M.E. Church at twelve years of age, and has been connected with the church ever since. During her long sickness, she exhitbited unwavering patience and trust in Him whome she believed, and died rejoicing in the same faith. She was buried on Tuesday, Sept., 4th, her paster, Rev. F.H. Wheeler conducting the funeral services at the M.E. church. She leaves two children, a son and a daughter, four sisters and one brother. After so much suffering and patient waiting for the final summons, death was to her a blessed change, and those who mourn her loss cannot wish her again upon that bed of pain. End of obituary. Eliza was my gg-grandmother and is buried in the Grandview Cemetery at Gary, South Dakota. If anyone recogizers her and know who her sisters where or who they married, please contact me at _jimmynj@aol.com_ (mailto:jimmynj@aol.com) . Thank you Jim Cochrane
