lands
(1047 KB) 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.
Jacob's
Grave
(14 KB) J. B. Cochran born 1822 buried at
Hill City Cemetery in Kansas. He had left
Guernsey Ohio after the Civil War to explore the
Iowa Territory for a few years, then migrated
into KS in 1882.
Jacob's Military
Registration (121 KB) J. B. Cochran born
1822 to William Cochran and Martha Henderson
served in the Civil War. Some say that two of
his brothers went into Canada and never
returned.

Cochran
(202 KB) Census shows he obviously had a son
named Jacob residing next to him so now we know

lived close to brother William on the next page
from their father and the Henderson families are

Aunt
Ethel's Home (128
KB) This tiny home was built by Aunt
Ethel and her husband Jace Gibson and my picture
was taken when my sister Pam and I visited the
area around 2005 after hearing the story from her
daughter Peggy whom we lost not long afterward to
kidney cancer. Peggy's story was that Ethel and
Jason had several children at the time, all living
in a tent on this farm, while they built their new
home around 1930. It seemed to be one of the
oldest homes still standing in 2005. Ethel and
Jace are buried down the road at Hills Chapel
Cemetery on the Long Road close to her father John
Thomas Bozeman and his 4th wife Sara Ellen Bean.
Sara raised these children after their mother died
young and told them stories, like she was related
to the hanging Judge Roy Bean. She was a wonderful
stepmother who also gave them four more siblings
before she passed away. Many of these descendants
still remain in Dublin, Ramer, Grady, and Hickory
Grove.

Aunt
Ethel Notes (68
KB) Since her sister was my great
grandmother and Ethel had many surviving but
elderly children in the Dublin and Ramer
Communities, I located and contacted a few for
information. I managed to meet several of Ethel's
descendants in May 2007 at Hills Chapel Church
which was a marvelous gathering of cousins. We
exchanged research and took many photos.
Elisha
Anderson of NC died in 1834 (51 KB) His will is found
probated in Montgomery, mentions his wife,
daughters and son Elijah - Elijah had our Seaborne
Montgomery Anderson who had Nancy Jane. Seaborne
had a brother named Elijah who died in the Civil
War 1861 and home was listed as Hickory Grove.
Hickory Grove is also where our Grandpa McClain
lived. Some researchers think that Elisha Anderson
was the son of Elmore Anderson and a full blood
indian all born in 1700s North Carolina, near the
Sellers and Pool families who were also of mixed
blood.
