Listers, I have received this address and you can put in the time frame of your ancestors and see what was happening in that era. Isn't it wonderful? www.ourtimelines.com Maureen

I have just finished going thru 8,400 names from the 2 volume set of Crown Hill Cemetery, Salem, Washington County, Indiana. The Web site now includes 20,684 names and 19,047 direct descendants. more importantly, I was able to enter and corroborate about 2500 dates of birth and death along with lineage. I have marked the source carefully. If there was a conflict with earlier data, I have included both. Please check your particular line and let me know of any problems.

An item on eBay has piqued my curiosity. Does anyone have a Sam Cooley, Civil War Photographer in their family? If so, I would like to know a little about him. Joyce

After reading through it I realized that I have made a VERY VERY EMBARRASSING mistake! My Jacob Alfred isn't a Cooley at all!!! He is a DODSON who married a Cooley. Sarah Louella, daughter of William and Elizabeth Jones Cooley to be exact. I have had good ol' Jake on my mind for a while now, I guess and just jumped at the name Alfred. This must mean I'm on too many lists or really need to take a vacation from genealogy. I'm not sure which, but I think I will take my red face and go rest for a while now. <grin> Thanks again. -- Diane Scannell Wichita, KS dscannell@kscable.com http://sikes-sykesfamilies.rootsweb.com Rootsweb Sponsor and Proud Donor

Diane, don't feel embarrassed. I know just how you feel when you think you see something you have been looking for so long. I have been trying to find out who Alfred Cooley's parents are for about five years and is still up against that brickwall. However, where was Sarah Louella and her father William Cooley from? Did they live in AL? If so, could you give me some dates and locations? Thanks, John

Listers, I am looking for Joseph J. Cooley who was inducted into the service from New York. He was in the 143rd Infantry 36th Division. Date of Death June 17, 1944. Purple Heart. If anyone has ANY information, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Maureen

Hello John, I am searching for the parents of Jacob Alfred Cooley who was born "Jan 1860 in AL" and your Alfred caught my eye. I wonder if he could be my Jacob's father? Would you please list the children for your Alfred and each of his wives? Thanks ever so much.

Hi, Diane. This is what I have on Alfred Cooley's wives and children, but I do not see a Jacob Alfred Cooley. ALFRED COOLEY (my g-grandfather) b. 14 Apr 1834 Columbia, Henry Co. AL, d. 12 Jan 1920, Dothan, Houston Co. AL. Who are Alfred's parents? Indications are that his father was born in NC and his mother in SC. Names are not known. Alfred had a sister Louisa Cooley 17 on 1850 Census Coffee Co. AL. (1) m. Elmira Aires/Ayers late 1950s or early 60's in AL. Children are: James b. 18 Sep 1860 Coffee Co. AL, d. 6 Oct 1934 Polk Co. FL. William Wesley b. 31 Dec 1864, d. 9 Nov 1900 Houston Co. AL (2) m. Lenora/Elnora Brewer b. 1844? d. 1898? Jackson Co. FL. Children are: Owen b. 1870 FL, d.? FL. Joseph b. Dec 1872 FL d.? FL.

If you can give me more info on Jacob Alfred Cooley (where he was born, what AL County he lived in, where he was buried, etc.) I will look over what I have and be on the lookout for more info on him. I was born in NW FL and moved to north AL in 1960 where I still live. John

Hello, There are Cooleys in Rome, Georgia. My maiden name was Couey and Cooley is one variation of the spelling. I live in Nevada now, so cannot do any checking for you, but you can have someone there check for you. Bernice Couey Anderson

Hi, I'm still trying to identify Alfred Cooley's parents. Alfred Cooley b. 14 Apr 1834 Henry Co. AL d. 12 Jan 1920 Houston Co. AL, m(1) Elmira Aires, m(2) Lenora Brewer, m(3) Salley Henderson. Alfred lived and raised his family in south AL and in Jackson Co. FL. I am told that Allen Cooley b. ca1780 d. ca1850 Holems Co. FL, m Rebecca Anderson, had a son James A. which could possibly be James Alfred. Allen moved from SC to AL and then to Holmes Co. FL. I have been unable to find any info on Allen and his family. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who may have info that would help in identifying Alfred's parents. Thanks, John

Is there anyone researching a COOLEY family that lived in Moultrie Co. Illinois around 1850. I have a Moses being born there in 1850. His father might have come somewhere in the southern part of Illinois. M. Johnson emlejay@midusa.net

My line ends in Mass. Warren Cooley, b. 8 Oct 1844-45 in Eaton Twp., Lorain, OH. His parents were Harrison Cooley and Harriet Day. Harrison was born 11 Mar 1819 in Springfield, Hampden, Mass. He and Harriet were married 1 Mar 1842 in Shalersville, Portage Co., OH. Harrison was the son of Chester Cooley and Azuba Johnson. If anyone has any information on any of these people I would really appreciate it and could use the help.

Greetings to all researching this surname. My group came from Ireland and spent their lives in New York City - Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx and an occasion foray up to Westchester County. Are there any New York City Cooleys researching out there? Good luck to all with your research! Donna

Specifically, James, John, Elijah,Joshua, Chapman and others migrated to Roane, Meigs and Rhea and Morgan Counties in Tenn, along with familes of Brocks' and Stewarts', Donna Bray Braydon29@cs.com
