Athey is not a name I'm familiar with. There are other Copelands. I know a guy in Iowa who has a line that seems to run in and out of the Logan County Copelands but doesn't quite make the connection. Somewhere around here I have some of his lines and I'll look for that Athey name when I find it. Remind me if I don't mention this again in the next week.
