Shirley: I'm a little confused by your posting. You said that Thomas Cochrane died Feb 27, 1902, and was buried on the 2nd of February. Must be a typing error. :) I believe that your Thomas and Sarah Cochrane had a son named Thomas E. Is it possible that whomever transcribed the obituary or prepared it for the newspaper just mistook a T. for a J.?? I find your family in the 1860 census in Delaware Co., in 1870 in Delaware Co., in 1880 in Adair Co., and in 1885 in Adair Co. In none of those census records is there a son named J. E. Cochrane. I find their children as William R., Frances E., Thomas E., Albert L., Harry B., George W. Cochrane. Perhaps I'm wrong. I hope this helps you a little. mk ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shirley Gunter" <shirleyjgunter@comcast.net> To: <iowa@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, March 07, 2009 5:25 PM Subject: [IOWA] 1900 census > My Thomas Cochrane died in 1902 FEB.27th,buried on the 2nd of FEB.He was > born in Greenock,Scotland.his son was J.E.Cochrane,from Corning,Iowa.it > seems he was living there from the obit I have.Thomas and Sarah are on > the > census,but cannot find the J.E.Cochrane.don't really know what his first > name is other then the ones that were in the paper.don't even know if he > had > children.maybe he came to Corning after the census was taken.is that > possible? > > _____________________________________________ > > For additional information concerning how the list > works, how to sub and unsub and list rules, visit > http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~richard/ialist/ > _____________________________________________ > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > IOWA-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes > in the subject and the body of the message >
