Hello, I have a xeroxed copy of two pages from an unidentified book. Could someone please identify this book for me? Author? Publishing data? etc... I am also interested in trying to establish IF this COCHRAN family is related to *mine* .... Following is the material from this "source unknown" book: (pages 254 & 255 of a book, Source Unknown) GLOVER William Glover was the administrator of the estate of Edward Glover, deceased (probably his father) in Orange County, Virginia, on 28 July 1741. On 3 July 1736, Edward Glover was a witness to four land sales (deeds) by William Jollife and his wife Mary in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. (source #171) At Edward’s estate sale, William Glover purchased horses, cows and miscellaneous items including: six calf skins, 176 pounds of nails; 409 pounds of grey deer skins, nine pounds of beaver and other fur; 30 pounds of drist leather; a large parcel of thread and brass, 11 gimbletts (small tools for punching holes), some knitting needles and mohair; buttons, pins and needles; seven pieces of tape and remnants; remnants of carsey, sowing silk, silk laces, two remnants of callico, two pieces of gustin and two pieces plus a remnant of Douglass. Evidence suggests from these items that both Edward and William were tailors and furriers, fashioning leather coats and leather breeches (trousers) . (source #172) William purchased 215 acres from Thomas Rutherford on 28 April 1742; this land was located on the east side of the main road from the Potomac River to Jost Hite’s land. (source #173) (Tract 56A, Map 7) The “main road” is present-day U.S. Highway 522, as it was before the construction of Interstate Highway 81. On 6 March 1760, William received a Fairfax grant for 355 acres. (source #174) surveyed on 4 November 1752, this land (adjacent east of his 215-acre patent land) ran along U.S. Highway 17/50. He and his wife Susannah sold the 355 acres to Hugh Lenox, William Scott and John Mitchell (merchants of Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania County, Virginia) for 214 pounds, 8 shillings on 7 February 1765. (source #175) William Glover was deceased by 2 June 1789 when his will (dated 1786) was proved in Frederick County Court. His will instructed his wife Susannah to sell the land lying on the north side of the Great Road leading from Winchester to Falmouth (U.S. Highway 17, southeast to Falmouth, Stafford County, Virginia). He willed the remainder of his 215 acres to his grandson William Coughran (Cochran). Glover also mentioned grandchildren Agnes, Elizabeth, Mary and Rachel, younger daughters of William Cochran, Sr. He bequeathed one shilling to William Cochran, Sr., stating in his will “he having had enough given him already.” Glover appointed his wife Susannah and grandson William Cochran, Jr. as his executors. (source #176) As executors, Susannah and William sold the nine acres 97 poles on the northeast side of the road leading from Winchester to Berry’s Ferry and to Fredericksburg (adjacent south of Falmouth), on 3 June 1789. It was sold to Susannah’s grandson Robert Cochran (William’s brother) for 37 pounds. (source #177) (part of Tract 56A) A John, Samuel and Robert Glover were in Albemarle County, Virginia where they sold land in 1747. (source #178) William Cochran Sr. was deceased by 1 December 1795 when his will (written 10 January 1795) was.. proved in Frederick County Court. He listed his second wife Mary (probably not William and Susannah Glover’s daughter) and children James, Robert, William, Ann (wife of William McKean), Margaret (wife of Isaiah Curlet), Martha (wife of Benjamin Langley), Agnes, Elizabeth, Mary and Rachell. He appointed sons James and William Cochran and son-in-law William Curlett as executors. (source #179) (source #171) Bucks County, Pennsylvania Deed Book 6, pages 352-358.
