  Notes	The 1850 census shows he was born in Germany to Michael Kocher and [perhaps] a first wife, Catherine. Should be verified, as the 1860 census shows him born in Ohio, and FindAGrave also shows him born in Seneca County, Ohio, to Michael Kocher and Mary Cramer.

  	Clarence E. Cramer indicates they were farmers near Huntington, Indiana. Important to find Marriage Record so it can be determined which children shown with the family on the 1860 census were born to her and Michael, and which MAY have been born to the (first wife? named?) Catherine Kocher shown on the 1850 census.
