Cochran Carter McClain Bozeman Coonfield Little Miller

Updated February 26, 2010

My Cochran Clan of Scotland settled in Pennsylvania in the 1700s and had something to do with Cochranville PA, appearing as merchants on the census. Quakers and or Pennsylvania Dutch, they moved into Ohio by 1810, then Iowa and on to Hill City, Kansas where Grandpa Jacob Cochran became the first HomeSteader. Captain George Little of Scotland born 1735 was in Union South Carolina and served in the American Revolution, settling into Kentucky about 1802 with his second wife Mary Handley Douglass. Here his children met up with the Criglers, Carpenters, Roby, Simmons, Wells families. The Coonfields of Holland were in PA in the 1700s and Isaac born about 1760 was in the 1800 Kentucky Tax List. His great grandson Ben Coonfield married Lattie Little. Their daughter Luella married Frank D Cochran. Our grandfather Captain George Little was wounded during the Revolution, therefore exempt from any poll or tax list. Some of the Coonfields and Cochrans were in Iowa Territory in the 1800s and Isaac Coonfield Jr. had settled in Indiana.
In Virginia 1600s is found Bozeman, McClain, Moon, Fann, Stone and 1700s North and South Carolina, are my Andersons, Brack,Doty, Sellers, Stephens ancestors who all eventually migrated into Georgia and Alabama, many listed in the DAR soldiers and patriots listing online. Much has been written about William Benjamin Sellers and John Stephens; The Doty family came from the first Thanksgiving in America, including our Edward Doty.
The capital city of Montgomery attracted most who were moving into Alabama. They farmed cotton and hauled by horse and wagon to Dexter Avenue to sell it. Those in Ramer or Dublin had a very hard time on the nasty dirt roads with their wagons getting stuck, that they found it much closer, to just travel to Troy and sell their crops.
Cousin Clarence deserves much credit for his work on the Brooks family tree. Our Hans Brooke came from Holland with a french wife and settled in Pennsylvania, having four children. Son John was found on the 1860 census of Giles Tennessee where he married and began a family but he also died young of tuberculosis and his wife remarried.
Even though we all studied history as children, only now do I realize how harshly the epidemics harmed our families. There were very few doctors, and even less money to pay them, so most families made their own tonics or salves and tried to heal their own. Also we begin to realize that our own ancestors were the indians who lost their lands during the Trail or Tears and that we also had ancestors serving in the American Revolution. We had ancestors in the Civil War with some in the Union and some in the Confederacy. There is a documented soldier or patiot in most of my surnames of this lineage.
Years ago when I first started this family tree, I downloaded a Cochran file online and thanks to Richard for his hard work on my Dad's lineage and the rest is my own labor of love. I took what Richard had posted on rootsweb and began my own census search to verify each family in the line and found even more to add, especially the Jacob Cochran file I received from cousin Chuck. Soon my little family tree became an addiction to genealogy.
I have met many new cousins on the internet and shared stories and pictures. Much of my research has been found on usgenweb and the lds websites and I do thank my Bozeman cousins for meeting with me on 5/2/2007 and helping us find the grave of Peter Edward Bozeman. I have visited many cemeteries and ordered death certificates to prove my lineage.Elisha Anderson's will was probated in Montgomery 1834, Several marriage licenses and estate sales, even confederate applications. The first Peter Bozeman born 1758 has letters filed here in 1828 where he wrote to the revolutionary office.
Many books have been written about our families and my own book sits on my desk and is being added to each day but will never be published.

Now we need to go back and find the followup to this document to see when the land was sold and to whom.

  • Grandpa John Wright Little (26 KB)

John was the son of Catherine Wright and Hiram Lucius Little. Catherine Wright's mother was Catherine Weatherford, a daughter of Charles according to the Virginia records online. Researching Charlotte Virginia, I found a young Charles Weatherford who could have been her brother and then a Patsy Weatherford who might have been her mother. Family legend is that John's family refused a land allotment in Indian nation Oklahoma, but it is a mystery as to why he chose to move to Arkansas.

His grandparents were Martha Hill and William Henry Bozeman who migrated from Darlington South Carolina about 1826. The Andersons and Bozemans lived next to each other in Hope Hull 1830 with Peter Edward being born in 1834. When William died, Martha Hill Bozeman moved to Dublin near her brother John Hill, who created the Hills Chapel School and Church........ After the Civil War Peter and Nancy bought land in Ramer/ Dublin area along the Meriweather Trail close to John Hill. John Hill donated land for their family cemetery which I visited, and he donated land for the Hills Chapel Church and another cemetery across from it where John T Bozeman is buried.

  • WWI Charles McClain (36 KB)
    his birth date is wrong, should be 1886 but it shows his wife as Lorena Bozeman. Charles was the son of Elizabeth Broadway and Josiah Marion McClain's who's families migrated from South Carolina into Georgia, then Alabama. Josiah descends from Elizabeth Moon and Charles McClain of 1750s Virginia. Elizabeth Moon had named a son Josiah and his son James had married an indian woman called Anna - Anna had a son named Josiah. I have seen three different dates of birth for grandpa Charlie but they had very little education, some could not read nor write at all, so the numbers are often mixed up. His mother Elizabeth was the daughter of Mary Stephens and Abner Broadway, and when Josiah died about 1897, she remarried to John Gardner of Dublin. Elizabeth and John and Charlie are found on the 1900 census, then again in 1910 with Lorena.

  • DAR Jesse Bozeman (10 KB)
    Unknown connection but our Peter named a son Jesse so this could be a brother to our Peter in Darlington - there was a Jesse living two doors away from Peter in 1800 Darlington census. Peter's son was named Jesse M Bozeman and I can only suppose that M was for Mordecai and then can suppose it is possible that was also Peter's father's name.......now go back to the Jesse who served in the American Revolution and wonder if his middle initial was also M - could he have really been Peter's father living so close to him in 1800.............we may never know.
