Mary and Charles Millican
|
Mrs. Mildred Jones of New Mexico has furnished the majority of the
information on many of these descendants in Georgia, particularly
those having LDS references. She has been exceedlingly helpful in her
thorough and endless research and I cannot express my gratitude. She
has also furnished all the data regarding the family of William MILLICAN
who married the daughter of Robert MILLICAN, who came from SC
through KY to Texas c. 1824. The town of MILLICAN, TX was named for a
son of Robert. It is our opinion William was a full brother of Mary
Ann, descendants following, and of Jane MILLICAN who married James
COCHRAN.
John Milllican d. 1818 in Madison Co., GA. He and his first wife, to
the best of my knowledge had 4 children, one being Jane "Jennie"
Millican who Mar. James Cochran. They moved to Giles Co., TN early on
and later moved to Maury Co., TN and then to Polk Co., MO. See
Cochran Genealogy.
John Millican and his 2nd wife Mary Cleghorn Moore, widow, were
parents of my ancestor, Elizabeth Ann Millican who Mar. John Martin
about 1818 and they moved to Giles Co., where there are still some
descendants living, now most being from the Martin/Coker lineage.
I believe the following Mary Ann was a full sister of Jane Millican
Cochran, and that when something happened to Mary and her 2nd husband,
several of her children also came to Giles and Maury Counties, TN.
MARY ANN MILLICAN, b. c. 1790, d/o John MILLICAN and 1st Wife? mar. 1)
c. 1808 Charles MILLICAN, Will written 3-2-1818 Madi. Co., GA, s/o
Andrew MILLICAN and Lettice CLEGHORN. They were 1st cousins mar. 2)
10-12-1820 Elbert Co., GA Asa COKER.
I have not been able to find her in any census records and could only
guess at her age. She may have married at a very young age and the
birth dates of her children and the death date of her first husband
are the only evidence on which to approximate her birthdate.

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.)

"The Rev. MILLICAN was b. near Lynnville, Gi. Co., TN. He took
literary courses at Baylor University after which he served as pastor
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.)

He furnished a good portion of the gravel used in the construction of
many buildings in down-town Ft. Worth. His son told me he drove a
truck for him. William owned about 25 A with a large 2 story house
that sat to the west of the current Montgomery Ward 8 story building.

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.

(End of Bible Record)
(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.
References: Coffee Academy, Chronicles of OK, Quarterly (2 volumes of
index), Oklahoma Trails, Arkansas Presbytery 1812-1894 - Presbyterian
Church in Oklahoma)
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?)

Please note: I was convinced the Thomas Fitzpatrick and his wife Eliza
Ann were my lateral line because so many of the children of Mary
Millican came to Giles Co., apparently after their parents died. I
have eliminated the Giles Co. Thomas Fitzpatrick family due to the
fact that there is so much questionable about whether or not
the wife is Lettie using other names.

Sarah A. WILKES, b. c. 1836
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.)
Is John M. COKER in hh of another surname 1840?
