Is this Benjamin Edgar Cottrell (1862 - 1932) m. Emmaline Elizabeth Cook (1864 -) the son of James J. Cottrell (1837 - 1927) and Nancy Rachel Bowen (1837 - 1909).I have the following for them (probably not complete):
1. Cora Della Cottrell (m. Henry Gritten)
2. Jesse C. Cottrell (m. Gladys Collingswood)
3. Etta R. Belle T. Cottrell (m. Azzie Davis)
4. James F. Edgar Cottrell
5. Earl Findley Cottrell
6. John V. Cottrell
James J. Cottrell (1837 - 1909) is the son of Benjamin Cottrell and Sarah Foster.They were in Pike County Ohio thru the 1850 census and Benjamin Cottrell was an older brother of my Harrison Tyra Coterel.It's funny though that my main reason for posting was for Sarah Foster.Some Iowa descendants say she was a Henderson.I trying find out where that comes from as everything I have found so far says Foster.That being the case, is she connected to Isaac Foster who filed an affidavit in 1841 for James Cottrell.James was trying to get a Rev War pension.Also, Isaac Foster had a son marry a daughter of Daniel McCan and Elizabeth Cottrell.
