This book has been scanned and is available through Ancestry.com's subscription is you are a member. I checked the biography for William Cooley and his family and have transcribed it below. There was nothing on page 35 in relation to the Cooley family. The small section on the Civil war did not relate much of anything. pg. 631 WILLIAM COOLEY (Farmer, Section 12). Mr. C. is the son of John and Elizabeth Cooley, both natives of the Blue Grass State. They came to Missouri at an early day and settled in Howard county, where William C. was born August 19, 1818. He grew to manhood on his father's farm, and received a good education at the neighboring schools. He was engaged for some time in salt making. In 1840, Mr. Cooley took to wife Miss Elizabeth, daughter of John and Elizabeth Fields, originally from Kentucky, and soon after his marriage removed to Randolph county. He began life with only a pair of ponies as his stock in trade, but by steady attention to his business and habits of unflagging industry he has acquired a comfortable property, and is among the substantial men of the township. He cultivates 140 acres of land, making a specialty of wheat. Mr. Cooley saw some active service during the war, being out with Price's raid in 1864, and was made a prisoner at Fort Smith. He was afterwards released at St. Louis. Mr. and Mrs. Cooley have eight children: Joseph, Sarah, Rebecca Jane, Catherine, Elvira, Evaline, Adelia Ann and Edla. Mr. C. is a prominent member of the Masonic order.

I did not locate any information on these individuals in the 1884 History of Randolph and Macon Counties. However, Henry Hudson may be found on the Larry Sumpter's database of Randolph County Deaths as follows: Hudson, Henry "Vol." -- 21 Nov 1872-5 Dec 1941 = Oakland Cem David James Hoskins <j.j.hoskins@gmail.com> wrote: Could you check the book for Henry Hudson or Daniel/Darnell Campbell.
