Cochise

Classification: Query
Surnames: Miller
According to a cousin, her grandfather told her that his wife was the granddaughter of Cochise. It would seem that Nahche, Cochise's son, was out riding a horse, but the horse went "crazy" and my great-grandfather, Andrew Jackson Miller, helped to save young Nahche and returned him to Cochise. In return, Cochise gave Miller one of his young daughters to marry. Eventually, Miller and Cochise's daughter had two children before she died after giving birth to my great-grandmother. Anyone even HEAR of Cochise having a daughter? Want to either disprove or prove this "family legend".
