COUGHRAN/CAUGHRAN/COTHREN/COHORN
Researching George COUGHRAN/CAUGHRAN who came to Sevier County sometime after 1834 in the company of Lewis COUGHRAN who I believe was his youngest son. I believe George may be the patriarch of all SW Arkansas COUGHRAN/COUGHRAN/COTHRENS, etc. I've been tracking him from VA and his name is spelled a little differently on every document I uncover. He was a Revolutionary War veteran who lived in Bedford/Campbell County, VA between 1781-1787. I suspect he was either born in Charlotte, Henry or Augusta Counties, VA, but cannot yet prove it. His father may have been William COUGHRAN who in turn was the son of John or Peter COUGHRAN, both immigrants from Ulster who resided in PA before moving south to VA. George left VA around 1790 and headed west through KY and (possibly) IL before arriving in AR by the time of the 1834 Territorial Tax Lists. He was in Sevier County in 1851 when he applied for a Rev War Pension and Bounty Land Warrant. At that time he was about 90 years old. On the 1850 census his name is spelled Cathern.

Both are said to be buried in Arkansas. I have old family photos of a Joe Shaw and an old letter from William Shaw. I believe both are children of Dallas and Sarah Shaw, but I have very little information on this family. Dallas and Sarah's daughter, Sarah Arkansas Shaw w. Ransom Pinckney Hook ( my g-grandparents) in Fannin Co., TX in 1890. They later moved to Garvin Co. OK. I would love to hear from anyone with a connection to, or information about, this family. 816 Cambridge Dr. Plano, TX 75023
