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.

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
