General Notes: Husband - John Cochran

When he was ten years of age his father died and he became the main support of his mother and his younger brothers and sisters. He helped to clear the site of Apollo and afterwards purchased a farm five miles east of that then small place. He was a whig and afterwards a republican, and served as constable of his township, besides holding other local offices. A methodist in early life, he afterwards became a presbyterian.
