He had a sister, Daisy M. Cochran who married Lamont Gray. I witnessed Mr. Gray's death when he went to his barn one night and set it on fire. His brothers were Francis Edward, Andrew (Jack) and Marshall. He also had a half brother Morris. Around 1900 Ed and Marshall went up river on the Cumberland to Canton and Golden Pond. They came home and told the family that they were spelling their name wrong. That in Canton and Golden Pond they spelled it Cothran. They, then changed to Cothran except Bartley. He said I was born a Cochran and I'll die a Cochran. Their father, Benjamin Thomas was a brother or half brother to my Grandfather, John Cochran. My father was James Everill Cochran and his brother Newman spelled it Cothran.
