My Grandmother Dunagan - Cochran Family Relations

Martha Meldonna "Mellie" Cochran Dunagan

William "Willie" Andrew Dunagan

My grandmother Dunagan was Martha Meldonna "Mellie" Cochran (1883-1960) of Gainesville, Hall County Georgia, buried at Corinth Baptist Church, and married to my grandfather William Andrew Dunagan (1880-1939) on March 17, 1912.

Mellie, as she was called, was the daughter of George Washington Cochran (1858-1929) of Gainesville, Hall County Georgia. Her grandfather was John Cochran (1834-1906) aka Benjamin or Bennie.

William Andrew Dunagan aka Willie and Mellie Cochran Dunagan had four children:

George Jeter Dunagan, my father. (1913-2006)
William Melvin Dunagan (1915-1996)
Lucille Dunagan (1918-2003)
John Dempsey Dunagan (1925-2012)

I don't have a lot of information on my Cochran Family side. If anyone is able to provide additional data on this lineage please leave comments or email me at wdunagan@gmail.com
