Notes
a. Note:   The Daily News - Saturday, May 22, 1909 Mrs. Sophia Cooley Fairchance, May 22-Mrs. Sophia Cooley, aged 81 years departed this life May 15, 1909 and was buried May 17 from her late home where services were conducted by Rev. Eastburn of the M. E. Church, assisted by Rev. Gladden of the M. P. Church. Grandmother Cooley, as she was called by everyone, large and small, was known, loved and respected by all who knew her. She is survived by the following children: V. L. Cooley, Mrs. Martha Jane Kissinger, Mrs. Eliza Carr, Louie and Pierce at home. She leaves 19 grandchildren and 52 great grandchilddren. She was a fond, loving mother and bore her affliction with a tender, loving spirit. The Ladies Aid Society of the M. E. Church presented a beautiful bouquet of carnations and ferns. She was a faithful member of the society and was a member of the M. P. Church. Well, we can say a sainted mother has gone to be with Jesus, safe from all sorrow and care; waiting and watching for loved ones who expect some time to meet her there.
