Wife and two sisters spell maiden name Cochrun, but pronounce it
Cohorn. They are also from tiny town in North Central Kansas. (It
should be noted that most towns in NC Kansas are tiny). We are having
difficulty tracing anyone before gg granddad Simon, b. Bourbon Co, KY,
d. Westmoreland, KS. Would be glad to compare notes and share
information.

My moms maiden name is Cochran.....her family pronounces is Cohorn
except for her brother...he went into the service and they told him it
was pronaounced Cockrun. Mom said this is how all her family pronounced
it. Moms family is from northwestern Kansas...I am interestd in getting
family history from this family.....mom had done it for years and this
family is hard to find...I am willing to share any information I
have...Thanks

I, too have heard of the Cochran name being pronounced Co-Horn. When I
married, my husband was from a town about 90 miles further west than my home
town. There were Cochrans in business in that community. Although they
spelled it Cochran, they pronounced it Co-Horn. It was rumored in the
community that this pronunciation arose from some type of family feud that
occurred many years earlier. This all happened in a tiny town in north
central Kansas, so apparently this pronunciation is not a total aberration.
I was glad to see that someone else had run across it.
Good luck everyone with your research. If you are looking for Cochrans from
that area whose names are pronounced in any of the various ways, perhaps I
can help.

BARNETT, BEAVERS, BELL, CARTER, BALSLEY AND WILSON
In the 1860 Carroll Co TN census, my gggg gf, James Manesse Cochran, was
almost never found. His name was spelled J.M. COHORN. Also, in this
area of TN, (don't know about anywhere else) today, it is not uncommon to
hear it pronounced, Cothran.
As for the brogue/dialect, yes, you have to hear it to understand how it
could be "misprounced" by today's standards. My maternal line involves
the name Cutbirth. In 1750-1800 period, in the heavily Scottish/Irish
populations, (not ScotchIrish, thats a mispronounciation also) the name
was Cutbeard, or Cutbaird.

Kim, My Alice and one of her brothers was born in Illinois. Her old brothers were born in Benton County Missouri and her younger siblings were born in Pettis County
Missour. The only record of marriage I have for my Alice is to a Robert Tyson, they had 3 children Andrew, Norman and Donald.....My Alice's Father was Joseph Cochran. She did have an uncle named Samuel who had 7 children, 3 boys and 4 girls. the girls were Sarah Margaret and Sallie Cochran (twins), Cora Mae and Clara Ellen. I do not have a middle name for Sallie Cochran, and she seems to have left home early.......to where or with whom, I do not know. Sallie was born somewhere in Missouri (Probably Benton County) 11 Dec 1886. If any of this helps, please let me know.

about history and languages, told me that since our COCHRAN ancestors came
from Scotland, they would have had a heavy brogue that rolled the letters in
such a fashion that to those hearing the name, it sounded like CO-HORN. You
about have to hear it pronouced that way to understand how it no doubt came
