This is not a request, but just something that I received that will show you all why I am pulling out my few remaining hairs over this one! Please recall that I have submitted some requests, lately, trying to find WORTHINGTON and KOOKER. You guys have jumped to the task, and I have learned much, and it is largely because of you. Sam & Louise KOOKER, a couple born in the early 1800's, I learned from the 1900 census I got from you guys, had 8 kids, 4 of whom were alive in 1900. I have now accounted for 6. Since my real goal was to learn the parentage of Caroline KOOKER, listed in one census as their grandaughter, I needed to account for all 8. I then found out Jesse WORTHINGTON married their daughter! That means only 1 is unaccounted for - if it was a male, it likely would have been Caroline's father!! But I wanted to nail down Jesse WORTHINGTON's Miss KOOKER. His wife. What was her name. In 1880, he was not yet married. In 1900, he was a widower! You know about 1890... Well I found one Larry Hillpot had Jesse's obituary! Surely it would mention his wife! Here it is. Read it, and you will see why I am weeping! Jesse Worthington, aged 76 years, died Monday afternoon at his home in Buckingham township. He had been in ill health for a year, but seriously ill for only a week. Mr. Worthington was a son of the late Joseph and Charlotte (Bodine) Worthington, of Rushland. For some years he was in business as a cattle dealer. The deceased married Miss Kooker of Pineville. Surviving him is one brother, Howard of Langhorne, and one granddaughter. Now doesn't that figure?! No first name. AARGHHH! Vince
