ORR/NICKELL/COCHRAN
Does anyone know who the parents of JULIA ANN ORR were? Perhaps someone can help me sort out the following: Julia Ann was born about 1830 in Trigg Co., KY. She married WILBERN NICKELL on January 12, 1844 in Caldwell Co., KY. The court documents of that marriage include a statement by JOHN COCHRAN that he gives consent for his daughter Julia Orr to marry Wilbern. John Cochran also consented to the marriage bond with Wilbern . Julia A. Nichols [sp?] appears in the 1850 Trigg Co., KY census as the head of a household. [Apparently Wilbern had died--1849.] Julia's age is given as 20. Three children are listed: Alfred, Emeline, Michael. My lineage is traced through Julia's daughter Emeline/Emaline, who married ZEDRIC D. MITCHUSSON born 5 June 1845 in Ironton, Trigg Co., KY. Zedric fought on the Union side, and ultimately died from war wounds on 10 February 1877. A journal page of death records, of which I have a photocopy [likely from Lyon Co., KY as most individuals are listed as residing there] show the death of Julia Orr on June 8, 1855. The listing appears as follows [with my brackets]: Julia Orr W[hite]/Age 25/ Female/ Single/ Occupation: B [whatever that means, many are listed that way]/ Residence: Lyon Co., KY/ Place of Birth: Trigg Co., KY/ Parents: JAMES & JANE ORR/Place of Death: Smithland, KY/Time of Death: June 8, 1855/Cause of Death: Typhoid Fever. Someone else has said that Julia Ann was buried at Newby Cemetery in Lyon Co. But, unless I am missing something, I did not see that indicated in the account of that cemetery given in "Land Between the Lakes Cemetery Records" compiled by Judith Ann Beam, 1974. Questions: Can I presume that James and Jane were Julia Ann's parents? Who were their parents? Who was John Cochran? I appreciate any help. Thanks.
