NICHOLS, COCHRAN, POOL - I am searching for the parents of Joshua NICHOLS m. Elizabeth COCHRAN, Isaac NICHOLS m. Chania COCHRAN and Jacob NICHOLS. These men served in Lt. Col. Adam McWillie's 2nd Regmt. of SC militia, War of 1812. After 1820, both Joshua, and Isaac moved to Bedford Co. TN, where they lived for several years. Between 1840 & 1850, they & families mmoved to Marion Co. AL, where in 1855 Joshua and Isaac's widow, Chania, recieved bounty land. Joshua's military papers state his place of rendezvous after discharge was Salem Co. SC. I believe, Salem Co., which is no longer in existence, was in the area where Lee Co. is now located. Jacob's application for bounty land, filed in Kershaw Dist. SC, 1855, states he was drafted in Bishopville. The 1810 census of Salem Co. list two NICHOLSes as heads of households: William and Jacob. I believe they were William NICHOLS, a Rev.War soldier, Anson Co. NC, m. Martha POOL and Jacob NICHOLS who may have m. Catherine, last name unknown. The 1820 census of Sumter Co. lists 5 Nicholses as head of housholds: William, Cath, Joshua, Stephen, Isaac. Willing to share data.
