My Cofran's also come from NY, Cattaraugus County. I believe we are related, but haven't been able to prove it. I am descended from Moses Cofran, believed to have been born in NH. His parents were also Jacob Cofran(Cochran) and Rebecca. Moses had 2sons and 1daughter. My great grandfather was Irving W. Cofran. A very elderly relative, since deceased, insisted that Irving and Elmer Cofran were cousins. I have not been able to prove this. Any help will be appreciated.
