I have a Moses Cochran, born June 13, 1813.Died August 5, 1903.Married Rebecca Davis.Second wife, Mrs. Parker.Two sons: William D. Cochran, Married Harriet Lance 11/22/1868; and James Bryant Cochran.William D. is my great grandfather."The first immigration of Cochran's to America was 1718 at Falmouth, Mass.. Known as the Governor Shute Company. The names of the Cochran immigrants that appeared: John, James, William, Andrew, Peter, B. Cochran, and Alex. Cochran.It is not known whether one of these was the grandfather of Moses.In 1790 there was a James Cochran listed in Rutherford County and a Moses Cochran listed in Surry County." (from hand typed geneology booklet passed to me...I don't know who compiled it.)
PS: my Dad added the "e" to Cochran.
