I did some digging after sending my notes on John B Cooley was born 29 Jan
1815 in County Down, Ireland. At the time that I found that his son, John W
Cooley was not the right John W Cooley (son of Sylvester B Cooley) I didn't
look at his information anymore.

John B Cooley's obituary found on Find A Grave; stated that he had a sister
(unnamed) and a brother, Alexander Cooley, who remained in Ireland. I found
that:

1. Alexander Cooley was born in 1818 or 1819 in County Down, Ireland.
2. Father was John Cooley
3. Alexander married Jane Finlay 21 Feb 1860 in Bangor, Ireland
4. Alexander & Jane were parents of Andrew b. 14 Apr 1865 & Andrew b. 27 May
1866 & Alexander b. 12 Aug 1868.
5. Alexander & family lived in Ballygrainey, Holywood Parish, County Down,
Ireland.
6. Alexander Cooley died in 1905 in Belfast, Ireland.

I cannot find the website link that you sent concerning the Cooley DNA
project. Would you please send the link again?

Do you have any idea if anyone in this line has done any yDNA testing?
