I think this may be the Agnes and John I've been looking for. I traced them back from my husband's great grandmother, but basically lost them after 1850 (as far as proof goes). The family story says that they met on the ship from scotland, fell in love, and were married when they landed in NY. They had several kids in NY, then moved to OH, then to MO. Does this sound like the same Cochrane's to you? I'd love to hear any information you would have on them if it does!!!
Thanks,
Esther Cummings

Dear Robert,
That is really useful! Up to now we had found the family in 1851, before the birth of Eliza, my grandmother, but didn't know the surname of Catherine. So now I have another named great-grandmother!!
We have never found a birth for Eliza, though we know she is a child of the same family, as they all migrated to Manchester eventually, living near each other, when Eliza had married my grandfather, James Sheridan.
If you should come across a birth for Eliza, that would be even better. Apparently, some of the children were born/baptised, in Ireland according to the 1851 census. Someone checked the 1861 Census some time ago, but couldn't find the family in the Isle of Man then, though I don't know how hard they looked.
Anyway, thank you very much for your contribution to my Family History. With both James and Eliza originating from Ireland, I don't often get any further with my paternal line, so this is a real pleasure.
By the way, Alexander was a gardener, so I should doubt any connection between him and any more affluent Cochranes! I don't know which part of Ireland they came from either.
Good wishes,
Rita

Dear Rita,
Don't know what came over me. My last part of my previous message is nonsense. Robert Cochrane did not marry Miss Wilson or have a daughter Isabella. He was a brewer in the Isle of Man in the 1820s. He could have come from Armagh. He could have married a Hester Ann Grice who died in the Island in 1886 aged 84. and Robert could have died in the Island in Douglas in 1864: the trouble is that I do not know whether the husband of Hester Ann Grice is the same person as the brewer.
Anyway, the rest of the information was sound.
Robert

Dear Rita,
Further: An Alexander Cochrane was buried in Braddan (Douglas) on 3-1-1870 aged 54.
Under dissenter baptisms we have an Eleanor Cochraine born on 13-6-1846 -- parents Alexander Cochraine and Catherine Caull; and James Cochrane born on 4-2-1849 to Alexander Cochrane and Catherine Caull. I am going to the Manx Museum shortly and will try to get copies of these for you. Hope this all helps.
I am trying to find out more about a Robert Cochrane who married a Miss Wilson and had a daughter Isabella born 31-12-1822 also Roman Catholics. I wonder whether they are related. This is not for family but I am researching into the breweries of the Isle of Man and Robert Cochrane was a brewer in the Island for a short time in the 1820s.
All the best. I hope this is of help to you.

Hello Robert,
Thank you for your help with my great Aunt, Margaret Cochrane. I have found a bit more about her and her famly since I put the message, but hadn't had her marriage, so that is an extra. I presume, by "non-conforming," it means they were married in the RC Church, as the family were Catholics of Irish origin.
Margaret and her husband and family are in the 1881 Census as STEVERIES, and eventually the name was changed to STEPHENSON, by 1901.
I am interested to know that Margaret was still in the Isle of Man in 1872, as I am trying to pinpoint the death of her father Alexander, who is my great grandfather. I know he had died by the time my Grandmother, Eliza Cochrane was married, in Manchester, in 1878.
From the information you gave, would it be possible for me to get a full entry of the marriage from the Registrar's Office in Douglas?
Good wishes,
Rita Sheridan
