Alexander Cochran of the American Revolution..

Migrating into Pennsylvania in the early 1700s, possibly the same one who served in the War for Independence receiving Land in Ohio in 1820 or was this his son......Finding a Alexander and a William Cochran in Pennsylvania listed as Merchants and later the only two listed in Guernsey Ohio.

So much to learn about these two men and the many children born to these families with many grandsons serving in the Civil War.

Finding these descendants and the families they intermarried an absolutely fascinating study and those who contact me, just as interesting.

We will never know if our Alexander had any connection to those of Maryland, who also migrated into the lands of Ohio, naming their own sons Alexander, but welcome aboard anyway because we just might meet again back in the 1600s of Clan Cochrane........

  Shiloh was Peter's land and Faith was Jesses land. While I stood in the center of that Stokes Carter Cemetery shown on the map, I had no idea about the churches or I would have looked for them or some sign that our ancestors were there. Peter Bozeman, his wife Sarah, their son William Henry, all could be buried at one of those places, which could now be covered in woods.
