Do you know of Cochum ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Cochum. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Cochum.<1>

Our sources for Cochum (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Cochum other than they indicate that Cochum would be found somewhere in Yadkin County, North Carolina.
