I have a GGGGgranmother that was a Cohn's. Her name is Marilla Cohns. It says she was born in Canada in the 1860 census of Michigan where she lived and raised her family with her husband John Putman also of Canada. This was his second marriage. Between 1840 - 1846. I am trying to understand the origin of this last name. Thank-you, Carylseeker1 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
