    Lew,
    
    Ophelia Elizabeth Caroline Strozier was born. 22 Feb. 1835 and died 31 Oct. 1862.
    Married 11 Nov. 1852 to John W. Cohron, born 17 Mar. 1832, living in Troup Co., GA 1900 census.
    --- John 2nd married Mary ----, b. Feb. 1828 GA.
    
    You may not agree with this information about the children, but I have a hard time agreeing with yours. :-)
    
    Your list of childrendoesn'tmatch the order and dates of birth shown in the "Strozier Genealogy" book by Shirley Kinney or in theBible records of BennettMadison Strozier --- BENNETT M -- Please note at the end that the Bible record was copied by Mrs. Kinney andnotarized, etc.
    Bottom of pg. 2:
    John Bennett Cohron was born July 31, 1853
    Mary Ann Cohron was born April 23, 1856
    William Jefferson Choron was born March 6, 1859
    J. W. Cohron was born March 17, 1832
    Nancy Ophelia Cohron was born March 31, 1862
    
    Near the end: Ophelia E. C. Cohron died Oct. 31, 1862
    -------
    The "Strozier Genealogy" shows 2 other children:
    George Cohron -- no dates -- This may be your Charles George, but he could NOT have been born in 1852,unless John had another wife before Ophelia.
    Chesley Cohron -- no dates
