Documentation and Sources:

Cochran and Coonfield and Miller all in Iowa Territory before migrating to other states.  Jacob even spent a few years in California during the Gold Rush with some of his brothers.  Jacob served in the Civil War.

Frank Delbert served in World War I.  His son Frankie Lavern Cochran is my connection to this line.  The lineage of Luella Coonfield Cochran I have already posted.

The 1880 census shows Jacob and Clora in Iowa and also includes a grandson named Frank that must be from one of his daughters by his first wife but not sure which one at this point.  

Some of his children moved into Arizona and some into Oklahoma.
