Bohanan
In Response To: Camp Kagi, ? Location ()

This may have been posted on this board before as I recall discussing what company was raised by W.L. Cochran. Be that as it may, the below is from Ancestry.com at http://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.oklahoma.prestatehood.itgideon1901/102/mb.ashx

I didn't find the Bohanan name on the 1860 US Census or Slave Schedules for either the Choctaw or Chicksaw Nations.

W. L. COCHRAN

History of Indian Territory
Page 949

Surnames: RAY, BOHANAN (Choctaw), COCHRAN, REDMOND

W. L. Cochran is identified with both commercial and agricultural interests, being the proprietor of a general mercantile establishment in Stonewall, while at the same time he follows farming and stock-raising. He was born in Tennessee on the 11th of January, 1844, but was reared and educated in Mississippi. In 1861 he came to the Indian Territory, raised a cavalry company and joined the Confederate army. For about eighteen months he was commissary. After the war he became interested in farming and stock-raising, following those pursuits until 1868, whe he embarked in merchandising at Pontotoc. After a year or two the post office was removed to what is now Stonewall, where he has since engaged in business, conducting a well-appointed general mercantile establishment. He carries a line of goods suited to both the country and town trade and his reliable business methods have secured to him a liberal patronage. He also has landed interests and is engaged in farming and stock-raising, which bring to him a good financial return.

Mr Cochran was married, in 1865, to Miss Jincy BOHANAN, of Choctaw blood, and unto them has been born a daughter, Eugene, now the wife of Dr. James Ray, of Denison, Texas. For his second wife Mr. Cochran chose Ella REDMOND, a white woman, and they have a daughter, Ella F., who is now a student at Denison, Texas.
