The Descendants of William Cochran and Margaret Watson

The Descendants of William Cochran and Margaret Watson

There is a lot of missing information.
If you find a connection to one of the families listed below, I would love to hear from you.

Shirley York Anderson

If any person is known to be living or they are less than 100 years old and their current status is unknown, then all siblings and their spouses have been excluded.  An exception to this rule has been made: where a person died early, leaving a spouse and the family has lost contact, the deceased person has been included.  A line has been inserted with only the generation number and the word "living" to indicate that a group or a spouse has been excluded, and a question mark if I'm not sure.

Parents of spouses, when known, are shown in italics, marriage date/place, when known, are shown on spouse's line in [square brackets]. Burials are noted only when the death location is not known.
