>> We do appreciate getting Alice Maude' maiden name of Welch. The main
>> problem we have is a marriage date 21 Nov, 1910 and which we believe is
>> incorrect. We would appreciate a Fulton or Izard Co. marriage record for

>> before Mary Watson Cochran's death.
>>
>> We would suggest that William Frank Cochran married Alice Maude Welch
>> about 1915 to 1917. It would have been easy to have transcribed 1916 to
>> read 1910.
