William Duffield Cochran, 1868-1919

My aunt, Mary Lovey Colvin of Danville, Ky., married William Duffield Cochran Jr.They had two children, William Duffrield Cochran III, recently deceased while in his mid-60's, and George Colvin Cochran, who is currently on the law faculty at Ole Miss.William Duffield Cochran III had two sons, John and Duff.
Somehow this lineage is connected to John C. Calhoun, according to family lore.Passed down to me, and now in the possession of my brother, are very old photograph of a John C. Calhoun, but this may not be of the former Vice President and Senator.There is a companion photograph, which I think is of his wife -- the name escapes me at the moment, but I will get it from my brother and post it.
Does anyone know what the relationship between John C. Calhoun and the families of George William Colvin of Danville [died 1929] and William Duffield Cochran might be?
