Hi everyone...This is Maureen Mary Cooley...I know most of the Cooley's in my line but I still have not finished. My Dad named me Maureen Mary. He said I was baptized Moritza Maria. He said it was Latin. He said Maureen means Mary.He said Moritza means Mary. This is what I know. My Dad was Richard Mathew Cooley. His Dad was Arthur Thomas. His Dad was Mathew. My grandfathers sister was Mary. Another was Gertrude. He had brothers Joseph. Joseph married Esther Whitney. She was neice of Ruth Whitney from Westboro Massachusetts. (They are descendant from Eli Whitney of Westboro Mass. And Conn.) Another brother was George Cooley. And William Cooley. I am still working on these lines. I know we descend through Benjamin Cooley. I have a different computor now and a lot of my work is gone. I am in Hopedale Mass. My Dads family brought Draper Corporation to Hopedale. These are also Whitney's and Adams. Thank you for responding. Maureen _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus
