As you have probably learned since these msgs were 1st posted, sometimes cemeteries are known in families by other names. ie: their families are mostly all buried there, it was the person that donated the land, etc
I am still looking and sure can't find the cemeteries. They lived in an area around Ash Grove, Blakesburg, Ormanville, and Drakesville. l know that Will & Pearly's mothers did not get along. Pearly's was a stepmother, Eliza Jane Howk Albright. When Pearly died, she & Marsh Albright took the son, Homer or Jimmy, depending on which side of the family, to raise. I know (have met in the last few yrs his granddaughter & her daughter.
The granddaughter said that her family never talked about the Coops so she doesn't remember anything about them.
Everyone speaks well of Will. My grandpa, Earl was the 11th child (Will was the 1st) and was 10 when his brother died.
