I found these marriages in New Castle Co., DE in Old Swedes Church (now Holy Trinity).
Elizabeth Cochran - Eliza F. Evans 4 May 1812
James Cochran - Elenor P. Barclay 14 Jul 1798 (he md. 1822 Catherine Van Renssalae Schyler)
John Cochran - Susan Martin 26 Jan 1840
John Cochran - Eliza Polk 26 Mar 1833
John T. Cochran - Margaret B. Pennington 9 Sep 1819
Joseph Cochran - Frances S. Lewis 18 Jan 1808
Robert Cochran - Rebecca Ryland 14 Apr 1808
Robert T. Cochran - Sophia A. Moody 17 Apr 1849
Robert T. Cochran - Elizabeth R. Moody 1 Oct 1825
William Cochran - Mary Humharg (Humburg?) 21 Apr 1745
William Cochran - Margaret Pluright - 26 Apr 1827
Edward Cochrane - Jemymy Garritson 6 Aug 1752
John Cockran - Mary Carr 10 Aug 1764
John Cockran - Mary Smidt 19 Sep 1784
Daniel Coghran - Catherine Willison 15 Dec 1774
Thomas Corcoran - Prudence Porsides 26 Dec 1749
James Cochran - Elizabeth Fairies 10 Dec 1767
Patrick Cochran - Gracey McNeal (no date)

Some sources on google books state that "All DE Cochran's are descended from Derick Kolchman (now Cochran) a founder of the Labadist Colony". He is listed in 1698 in Cecil County, MD (Dutch). Now not all of these Cochran's are descended from him but some may be since we can not connect them to any Cochran lines of Scot-Irish descent or English descent. The Old Swedes Church at that time was at Fort Christina. Any help would be appreciated.
