General Notes: Husband - William M. Cochran


He learned blacksmithing in Dayton, Pennsylvania, with Martin Travis. When he had completed his trade he married and purchased a farm in Wayne township, to which they removed, and on which he built a shop and worked at his trade together with farming. They after-wards removed to Goheenville, Pennsylvania, where they resided for a few years, but returned to his farm several years be-fore the Civil war. He enlisted in a cavalry company and was wounded in a scouting expedition, and from the effects of these wounds he died in Baltimore, Maryland. His corpse was brought home, and buried in Glade Run Cemetery.


General Notes: Wife - Martha J. McGaughey


She lived on the farm which they owned at the time of her first husband's death, for a short time afterwards, and also for some time with her father. She sold the farm and resided for a few years in the Ladies' Boarding House, at Glade Run Academy. She then built a house in Dayton, Pennsylvania, where she lived until the spring of 1877, when she went to Iowa, and spent one summer. She returned in December 1877, and in the same month she was married to Thomas P. Ormond, a merchant. Since then she has lived in Dayton, where she now resides.
