    1. [COCHRAN] Re: James Cockran or Cochran
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Cochran Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/IMJ.2ACEB/807.1.2.1 Message Board Post: James, Myers and Phebe Cochran are buried in a little church graveyard near Cherokee County, Bartow or Gordon County Georgia. James is listed on the stone as being born 1769 and his death date is 1850. Myers is 9/18/1812-3/20/1904, Phebe Rebecca as 1-/26/1821 with no death date. I have her death date as 4/20/1904 (off the internet). I have other information about her if you are interested. They were married in Bartow County, GA 11/16/1838. I believe James was born in Chimney Rock, Rutherford, NC. Myers had a son named James and I believe he is my great-grandfather but I cannot prove it. My gf was James (Jim) Cochran, wife Elvira Davis. If you want any of my list e-mail me and I will send them. I have a list of the Cochrans I found on the census reports. If you find anything about James in NC I would like to know. I think I can give you a list of Myers children. It is so hard to figure this stuff out since every male carries the name James into another generation. I wonder if James was named after his father another James. I did go to the library and I found a lot about the Cochrans in Rutherford, NC. They must have been rather well off, since they seem to own a lot of property and they were involved in the happenings of the county. Let me know by e-mail if you want any of this.
