Dear Ann: Received a copy of your query on the [email protected] I cannot find Richard Whiteside on the 1870, 1880 or 1900 Polk Co., Census. He must have been living elsewhere. I do have some information on the family you mentioned. Please let me make a few assumptions: Otis Columbus Cochran and Louise Ella Whiteside had a daughter Rose Bell Cochran who married William Lester Jimison, whose son Charles Edward Jimison married Elizabeth Ann Arledge. Could this be you? If so I have only that your mother's name was Sarah S., 20 Nov 1904-6 Jan 1995; If this is correct I would like to know her full name and anything you will tell me about her ancestors as well as everything you will share with me about your and your husband's family lines. I have been doing genealogy as a hobby in and about Polk Co., NC. and if you will show me what you have on your lines of interest I will appreciate it and will also sent you any details I have that you do not have. Thanks, Joe A. Cowart, 829 Indian River Dr., Cocoa, FL 32922-7530 or [email protected]
