hi kay.i hardly know where to start, but here are direct answers:columbus cochranewas son of john cockrum by 2nd wife, margaret sanders.when my ggrandfather leroy adams changed spelling, so did his siblings.leroy was child of 1st wife elizabeth ann robertson (roberson?).the sanders group left for colorado about 7 yrs after leroy returned following his route.the story is told by direct descendant of james henry & sarah sanders (e-mail for more info). isaac & family were in colorado with leroy.
in 1870 census of moore's township, i found braxton p.with wife mary ann catlin & 4 children. in 1880, in elk prarie, i found braxton 60 with wife mary 24 (a different mary?) & a different set of children (a different braxton?) in 1870, there was nan cochrane 66 living alone. in 1880, she is 76 with allan, & grandson eldorus.
braxton b.1821 is buried in cochrane cemetary with newton (no date) & mary n. b.1822.margaret sanders is buried there too.
i need a date for christopher columbus to see if he is the same as my columbus.enough for now.susan
