Re: George M. Cochrane

It's the same George Melville Cochrane who went by nickname "Mel". Shipbuilder, also built both Parrsboro and Port Greville United (then Methodist) churches. Father of Kenneth J. Cochrane , Late MP. MLA and county councillor.

Strange he married secondly in Colchester County as a bachelor.He was a first cousin of my grandmother
who was another Margaret Elizabeth Canning .


I think he was also a Relative of David WInters.
A

and here we go again






>From the actual registers:

I have a George M. Cochrane age 20 and a bachelor, Carpenter, son of William
and Mary, born and reside Port Greville marries Margaret E. Canning, age 19
in 1885

I also have a George M. Cochrane, age-25, and a bachelor, carpenter, son of
William and Mary, born and reside Port Greville, marries a Sadie Soley, age
25 in 1893

The census of 1901 and 1911 track George and Sadie with children

Can anyone shed light on this? Is it the same George ???,
