Surrounding circumstances influence all human affairs, and I have found that a man's prosperity or adversity greatly depends on the formation of his associates.

426	Alexander MACAULAY, 28, was born in Glasgow, Scotland, and had been living in Yorktown, VA for about 5 years where he had a mercantile business. He was recently married to Elizabeth (Betsey) JERDONE. They were traveling from Louisa County to Yorktown, and stopped at the home of David COCHRAN, 43, and his wife Lucy, 22. At the time, the COCHRAN's had three living children, Catherine, 7, William, 3, and Recebba, 6 months, who was to die in another 5 months. This is MACAULAY's account of the visit from his diary. "It threatened bad weather & we knew D. Cochrane kept a good Shop, and would give us a hearty welcome. We were not disappointed. Mr. Cochrane received us with a warmth of Heart, a cordial sincerity, that were I not a Scotchman, I would say was peculiarly the Characteristic of his Country - it is said they are only kind to one another. But I should imagine that where people are friendly to their own Countrymen, they must have some degree of Benevolence for the rest of Mankind. Mrs Cochrane likewise with genuine (not depreciated) Virginia politeness treated Betsey with the Hospitality due a Virginian, & your Hble Servant with the attention due to the Countryman of her Husband. "Saturday, 22d. Bad weather, good Quarters & cheerful Friends; spent our time very agreeably, had a visit from the amiable, accomplished, Delicate, genteel Mrs. Riddock, as neat, clean tug & handsome as ever; a good specimem of Scotch Ladies in this Land. Why in the name of wonder do such go abroad? She is much better calculated for the Meridian of the Mull of Cantire or the Esquimaux than the polished Circles of Virginia. "Sunday, 23d. Fine weather and intended to proceed. But Mr. & Mrs. Cochrane laid out an absolute Embargo on us. We therefore agreed to leave the roads to dry for this Day & set out next morning. "Monday, 24th, at Ten A. M. Bid adieu to our worthy Friends at New Castle, Betsey wishing she could have the pleasure as such a neighbour as Mrs. Cochrane; she is indeed very good natured & agreeable, & they seemed mightily taken with each other, and were quite well acquainted in a few hours. I was very glad to see it, as you know my Wife is rather reserved; However, Better so than to be too familiar; Mrs. Cochrans affibility would get the better of everything."

449	At age 30, Dr. William Cochran moved his young family (wife and 4 children) from Virginia to Lexington, Kentucky in early 1811, and re-established his medical practice with an advertisement in the Lexington Reporter on August 10th: "Doctor Wm.

From an experience of ten years in medical practice, he flatters himself he will be enabled to give satisfaction in the exercise of his profession - his residence is in the house lately occupied by Mrs. Irwin, and contiguous to Doctor Fishback and Mrs. Russel." Dr. Cochran had inherited the majority of his father's wealth, which was successfully gained as a tobacco merchant in Virginia trading with his relatives in Glasgow, Scotland. The inheritance was mostly land and property in Virginia that Dr. Cochran probably sold for a large sum. One could speculate that as with a lot of prople in that era, he became interested in the cheaper land west of the Allegheny mountains, and thus moved to Kentucky. Over the next 30 years, he was involved in many land transactions in north central Kentucky, moving his residence frequently, speculating in land for profit, maybe more so that his medical practice. Writing in 1841 about his life, he said: "Inclined somewhat to roaming, & which I am now satisfied was pecuniarily injurious to me, I changed my situations often. However always Engaged in a splendid Practice, for several years in Paris, Kentucky, Three winters in New Orleans, Some time in Boone County, Kentucky, and now in Louisville, Kentucky. "I . . . have Extended my benefices perhaps too profusely, from being once affluent in fortune, am now poor & dependent. Surrounding circumstances influence all human affairs, and I have found that a man's prosperity or adversity greatly depends on the formation of his associates. Mine have been of the highest order, but of that class who were prone to speculation and from whom I caught the infection, and in common with most of them became bankrupt."	COCHRAN, Dr. William (I163)

485	Capt. Joseph LOONEY was also listed as being involved, on 15 Mar 1781, in the largest, most hotly contested battle of the Revolutionary War's Southern Campaign, which was fought at the small North Carolina back county hamlet of Guilford Courthouse.

GREENE's retreat preserved the strength of his army, but CORNWALLIS's frail victory was won at the cost of over 25% of his army.

491	Charlotta must have divorced Karl HERMANN, or he died, and Charlotta married Lorenz ARMBRUSTER, with the events occurring between 1854 and 1857.

The baptismal record in 1861 for Charlotte's children, Anna ARMBRUSTER and John ARMBRUSTER with her second husband, list Johann and Johannette SCHEFFLING as the Godparents. Their relationship is unknown, but they may have been Charlotte's brother and sister-in-law. - W. Winston COCHRANE IV	SCHEFFLING, Charlotte (I1275)

[Their house at 217 Poplar St. in Philadelphia] "was an old Revolutionary home over 130 years old then [1874], but it was a comfortable home. It had 8 rooms with attic and shed. The attic was used by Grandfather as a shop for making and mending shoes and the downstairs front room by Grandmother who was a dressmaker, and made and sewed cotton bed covers. In this manner they made a very good living." - John T. LANDOLT	Family: ARMBRUSTER, Lorenz / SCHEFFLING, Charlotte (F522)
493	Circa 1776 he moved from Culpeper County, VA to a location on the Yadkin River in Wilkes County, NC. Circa 1777 he moved to an unknown location on the Watauga River in Washington County, NC (TN). Today, the Watauga River runs from Linville Gap in Avery County, NC, through Watagua County, NC, Johnson County, TN and into Carter County, TN, to its confluence with the South Fork of the Holston River. Circa 1778 he, along with 3 other men, were the first to settle a location further west in Washington County, NC (TN), at the head of Bent Creek, where they made a crop and built a fort. He remained there until his death in 1833. Today, this location on Bent Creek is near Whitesburg, Hamblen County, TN. In 1783, Green County, NC (TN) was frormed from this portion of Washington County. The next year several counties in western North Carolina, including Greene County, self-established the State of Franklin after North Carolina had abandoned the area. In 1786 North Carolina re-established county governments in parallel with the State of Franklin county governments, and in 1788 the State of Franklin was dissolved, not having b een recognized by the federal government. In 1790 North Carolina ceded the counties to the US federal government, who designated it the Southwest Territory. In 1793 Jefferson County was formed from this portion of Greene County, and in 1796 Tennessee became a state. Much later in 1870, Hamblen County was formed from this portion of Jefferson County.
