My Cochran's come from Patric Cochran, Irish immigrant,
probably born ca.
1755. Had son John Sr, est. birth, 1775 m. Nelly
Maneese. John Whitsett Cochran ,
born 1798 in TN, married Rebecca Fly, daughter of Elisha
Fly Jr. Marriage
recorded in Williamson Co TN courthouse, June 19,1818.
Great grandson
of Patric (Ammon Cochran) kept travel log/diary that
claims Patric was
grandfather to Ammon's father, John. One of the
two John's was killed by a
colored man in TN, probably John Sr. Also WFT has
Patric as ancestor to
this family. Starting from me, going backwards
in time....
