14. Josephine (Josie) COCHRAN

Records written from Effie Loretta Roll Nutter's memory show this surname written as Cohorn.

 

According to the 1870 census of Blackford, Co, Ind., Minerva's daughter, Josephine, lived with her at her brother Carter's home, and Minerva's 3-sons were farmed out to work on farms.  When Josephine's brothers Caleb and Leander reached 21, they moved with Minerva to Barada, NE., to live with Minerva's brother Astynax (Stein) Palmer.  Josephine was now married for the 2nd time and stayed in Indiana.  This was in 1877. (Josephine's brother, Samuel, may have died at 19 while in IN)

 

Although, Caleb would have been 21 in 1877, Leander would only have been 18.  Thus, there is the story that Stein Palmer went back to IN, got the boys released and brought them back to Barada.
