Obituary, paper unknown:

"Mr. A. C. MILLICAN died at his home on South Guadalupe Street a half past ten o'clock Tuesday night December 11th.

"Some months ago, he suffered a slight stroke of paralysis from which he never fully recovered.

"So patient was he in the suffering which he endured that all except his closest friends supposed him to be in fairly good health.

"The funeral was held from the residence Thursday afternoon December 18th. Religious services, conducted by Rev. R. A. McCurdy, pastor of the Lockhart Presbyterian Church, Rev. J. M. Purcell, a former pastor an intimate friend of Mr. MILLICAN, and Rev. A. H. McCurdy, former pastor at Luling, were held at the Presbyterian Church. Each speaker eulogized in befitting manner the life and work of Mr. MILLICAN.

"At the conclusion of the services at the church, the Luling Lodge of Odd Fellows, assisted by members of the Fentress Lodge, took charge of the body and buried it in Lockhart Cem. The burial service was read by H. L. King, acting Noble Grand, and a talk was made by Rev. McKinney, pastor of the Methodist Church at Luling, Chaplain.

"A large number of friends and relatives were present from different portions of the county to pay the last tribute of respect, and many beautiful floral offerings bore further testimony of love and esteem.

"Mr. MILLICAN was born in Marshall County, Tennessee November 4, 1839. There on November 8, 1860, he was married to Miss Mary C. COCHRAN. Together they came to Texas, arriving at a place near Prairie Lea on January 22, 1868.

"For many years that community was their home. From Prairie Lea, Mr. MILLICAN and his family moved to a farm near Luling where they lived until he moved to the town to become Justice of the Peace of Precinct No. 2, which office, together with that of city tax assessor and collector, he filled acceptably to the people for a number of years.

"A few years ago Mr. MILLICAN and his family moved to Lockhart and continued a resident until the time of his death.

"In boyhood, Mr. MILLICAN united with the Presbyterian Church. He was for nearly fifty years an elder in this church, and the greater (copy folded over)

"At the age of 21 he was made an Odd Fellow and stood high in the counsels of the order. He was favorably known in the Grand Lodge and was one of the leaders in establishing the Odd Fellows Orphanage at Corsicana. He often visited this institution and his work was to him a source of great pride. Much of the time he was district deputy of the order in this section. He was one of the charter members of the lodge at Luling.

"Until his health failed some months ago, Mr. MILLICAN was remarkable active for his years. He loved the society of his fellow-men and was present at almost every gathering, taking an active part in what was being done.

"He was a lover of good music and was active in promoting it in the church, lodge and community.

"The chaplain of the Odd Fellows said that since Brother MILLICAN had been away from Luling there had been very little singing in the lodge."

(I became especially interested in Martha J. MADDEN and have collected quite a bit of information about her ancestry, etc. Her father married a second time and moved to Pulaski where he was a carpenter. Martha appears to the only child of the first marriage of Count MADDEN. There are a number of court entries regarding settlement of his estate, including John and Martha into the 1880's.)

1851 Joseph JOHNSON died testate, names daughters Eliza JOHNSON, Hugh K. SHIELDS her guardian (see 1850 census to impairment?), son-in-law Hugh K. SHIELDS, daughter Elizabeth SHIELDS, grand daughter Martha Jane Madden. (Chancery Court Loose Papers published in enclosed) I would recommend sending for copies of these to the Old Records Dept. of Gi. County Courthouse. It would also be well to see if Joseph's will was probated in Maury Co., TN.

(These are SHIELDS names in Gi. Co., TN, lived close to our COCHRANs and MARTINs. Two of the SHIELDS boys in Gi. Co., TN. went with Archibald CROCKETT to settle the estate of his uncle David CROCKETT who died c. 1824 in Bibb. Co., GA.)

"The Rev. MILLICAN was b. near Lynnville, Gi. Co., TN. He took literary courses at Baylor University after which he served as paster of the Lake Avenue Baptist Church in Dallas, TX for 18 months, a position he resigned to attend a course of lectures in the Theological Seminary at Louisville, KY where he was located in 1894. He is connected with the Missionary Baptist Church of which his parents were members." Rockette Book.

(I was told by a descendant William Oliver MILLICAN was pastor of the Broadway Baptist Church. He became disillusioned about religion and quit the ministry. He owned a large 2 story house in the near west part of Fort Worth on several A which contained a gravel pit. This descendant said he drove a truck hauling gravel that was used in most of the major construction done in down-town Fort Worth in the early 1900's. The home on west side burned. The area is now located somewhere I calculate to be just south and west of the Montgomery Ward building, or they may have bought his property to build there. I have not continued research in this regard. The descendant was not interested in genealogy and gave me the address of a sister who was living in California. I wrote her and got no response. I believe she was in a nursing home and may have been incapacitated.)

Dear Frances,

I found this record in Sept. 1959 , in a Bible that my cousin Blanche (Mrs. Fred) Love, whose mother was Janie KERR, was discarding because it was all to pieces and she didn't think her son Walter Wallis Love, of Springfield, would want it. I asked her to let me save the family record. Deaths were recorded first, then marriages, then births. I have re-arranged them.

(It would appear that James C. COCHRAN is the only child to survive beyond the death of Sarah E., who appears to have been the owner of the bible.)

I came by the information that this record was on file in the Ozarkin Genealogy Quarterly. On 3 January 1988 I called Mrs. Chrisman and asked her if she knew any descendants I might contact. She told me that was about all she knew about the COCHRANs except that some went to Oregon and one had gone to Fort Coffee, AR to teach Indian children.

She also said she knew some of the COCHRANs had gone to Oregon. I have had a little correspondence about 2 years ago with Mr. Robert COCHRANE of Oregon who had written to the Giles Co. Quarterly regarding some of the Laird/EVANS genealogy. Mr. COCHRANE sent me copies of the two letters written by William W. COCHRAN to Charles Woodson COCHRAN, Mr. COCHRANE's ancestor. He said he had gotten the letter copies from Mr. Virgil COCHRAN of Texarkana. I contacted Virgil in early January this year and he was delighted to learn I was interested in the COCHRANs. He is gratefully praised for preserving these documents and sharing them. Without his doing so several connections would have gone unanswered and unproven.

I inquired at our local library and there was a Fort Coffee in LeFlour Co., AR. It was later abandoned and became Fort Coffee Academy. It was established 1834 at Swallow River and abandoned 1838, a school for Choctaw boys. LeFlore Co., OK. is just across the River from AR.

Since Mrs. Chrisman had sent the bible record of John Finley and knew some of the COCHRANs had gone to Oregon, I now wonder if some of John Finley's descendants did not also go to Oregon, since we know some of Charles Woodson's descendants are there?)

Notes for JOHN MALACHI COKER:

[Cokerjm.ftw]

Census shows wife of John M. Coker as Sarah, her age and ages of the

children listed make it seem very likely that this was not Violet Louisa's

mother, as she is only 6 years older than Violet.

Middle name may be Malachi

1839-6-3

Ordered that Washington ARMOR to whom John M. COKER was heretofore bound apprentice be from this time released from the obligation of the indenture entered into by him with the Chairman of this Court for that purpose. (Vol. begins 3-1837) Gi. Co., TN Court Minutes, p 351

Ordered that John M. COKER be bound apprentice to Thomas BARRETT whereupon he entered into an indenture with Alexander BLACK, Esquire Chairman of this Court as the law directs.

(Due to the fact that John M. COKER was apprenticed out in 1839, and before, I suspect the mother was possibly still living but the father was deceased. I also am remembering it is possible Mary Ann married again after Asa COKER died if she did survive him. If this is the case, she could very well have been in Maury and/or Gi. County during her lifetime.)

Notes for SARAH "SALLIE" ANN WILKES:

[Cokerjm.ftw]

"Joseph M. Coffee....... married Maggie J. Coker, who was born in

Missouri, Nov 2, 1858, daughter of John M. and Sallie Ann (Wilkes) Coker"

Tenn, 1860 census index shows John M. Coker 36, and Sarah A. 24 with Wm 17

, Louisa 15, John 13, Charles 11, Sarah A. 8, Margaret l. Question-is

Sarah A. the daughter of Sarah A.; that would make mother Sarah 16 at the

time of her birth which is possible. That leaves only a three year gap

for John's remarriage; the seven year gap between Sarah A.daughter and

Margaret seems more likely for the remarriage except for the name.

Notes for VIOLET LOUISA COKER:

[Cokerjm.ftw]

Violet was a member of the Christian Church since her childhood. Family

bible gives her name as Violet Shannon Wilkes.

Found a marriage record for Violet and Mr. Shannon, first marriage, so

Coker was her maiden name.

Also, Maury County Cemeteries says "Willkes, Viola L., wid., b. 19 Nov

1844 in Giles Co., d. 20 Nov 1926 of pneumonia; dau. John & .....Freeman

Croker (sic) of Giles Co." This is from a death notice listed with the

Shane cemetery listing. See notes also for Matthew L. Wilkes

Mrs. Violet L. Wilkes, wife ofthe late Matthew Wilkes, died Friday night

at her home at Campbell Station after an illness of three days. She was a

member of a well known family of the southern section of the county and

her death brought sorrow to a host of friends. She had been a member of

the Christian church since girlhood and was a woman of many splendid

traits. She is survived by four children, Mrs. T. M. Hobbs, Mrs. D. M.

Caskey, Mrs. J. B. Hobbs and Mrs. J. N. Reddingl Funeral services were

conducted Sunday morning at the Campbell Station Christian church by Elder

F. C. Sowell with internment in the Chanes cemetery. The following served

as pall bearers: T. M. Hobbs, W. D. Caskey, Nat Coker, Vernon Wilson, R.

M. and Joe Kerr. Flower bearers were Charlotte Hobbs, Winnie Caskey,

Mattie Mai Redding and Mary Redding. The Maury Undertaking Co., Funeral
