US Lookup Requests / Obit/death record lookup
« on: Friday 24 July 15 22:38 BST (UK)  »
Would any kind person be able to search for the death notice or obit of John D Cochrane who died in Clinton Indiana May 15 1913, living with family at the time, so there may have been one in his home of Milwaukee,Wisconsin. Any help no matter how little would be appreciated and gratefully received. Thank you in advance

Hi Vickie and others
I just put a search in for my great grandmothers family and up comes her parents names. She was Annie Wilson the daughter of Jane Clark and William Wilson. She married James Boyd of Carrickfin and they had my grandfather and a lot of others mainly sons. Most of them except 3 came here to New Zealand.  I once wrote to a Freddie Wilson in Hornhead and he sent me a neat poem he wrote
which I still have.
I always thought that Janes mother was Molly Connelly but maybe that was Williams.

Look forward to hearing from you

yes I will try for the death of the younger William...don't have any Michaels in the family and have found baptism for my great grt gran Helen 1831 only she was recorded as Jane and Jane wasn't born till 1833 ! Some of these were in the Scottish records which I guess were another denomination or something.
If you put a search in for the poem you might have some luck, it is quite sad though
Yes apparently those villages are very close.....it is good to have your input Jane

Hi Jane
Thank you for your interest in helping me...two heads etc etc ...I have all of those Census and it was while my researcher was searching in Maybole for a marriage for Helen DOUGLAS and John Cochrane as per my great grans marriage cert and several of the childrens baptisms that she realised there was not one there only for one of Helen McBride and JC.  Also all the names were the same as Helens family and grandparents and this is where we realised what had happened. Jane was in Maybole in 1861 under McBride with her younger children Hannah and Robert and a grandson Andrew Dick 5 yrs then we find her in 1871 under Douglas with Andrew 15 yrs....
I believe there was lot of wrong info in 1841 with ages being rounded off and yes, I think a William may have died and a sibling named for him as was tradition.
I have the death record for him but the wrong name was given for his mother however I think it was the informants mother when asked by the registrar he would have just said mother and the guy would have given his mothers name. On the cert, it has see Register of Corrected Entries and
there it says died in his mothers house after being injured in the explosion..I also have a copy of the newspaper report where several men were killed and a poem written about "The Terrific Explosion at Mossend" 1863. I could send the poem but am not sure how to attach it to this sorry.
A William was born in 1839 not a John as I just checked the OPR that I have but I feel that one may have died hence the baptism or just worng dates.
Its quite fascinating and good to have another person to mull things over with
Thank you again Jane
