Gordon, I have gotten back a lookup for Aaron D. Cochran in the 1840 Hickman County Census. Males: 1 (40-49); Females: 1 (Under 5), 1 (20-20). It may lend more questions than answers. My thought is that it looks like a daughter and her child, but I have no way of knowing. Could be someone not even related. His wife is not listed in the household, but she is named in his Will dated 5/22/1862, Hickman Co. I am assuming that you saw the abstract of Aaron's Will posted earlier. Josephine Isabel was not named, and we have her date of death as 1910. 1820 Williamson County Census does show 2 females, so I don't know why she was not mentioned. I haven't found where Aaron was for the 1850 or 1860 Census count, so the search goes on. Thanks to everyone who has helped us out with information. Velma
