Off and on I am doing research on the William Henry Cooley/Sophia Susan Havens line. William & Sophia had a son named Joseph Edwin Cooley (1820-) who had a son Charles Cooley born 1852 (birth year based on census) in Illinois. I haven’t researched his line but he was enumerated with his parents 1870 in Licking, Crawford County, IL.
Of the Joseph Edwin Cooley & Mary E Howard (1823-) I have only followed the Joel Henry Cooley (1846-1925) line. Joel lived & died in Crawford County, IL.
I will check on Charles.

I can't see how he would fit either. 1900 he says parents b France and Alabama, 1920 he says both b Wisconsin.
Maybe later we'll get some new info!

I have come to believe he is not one of our Cooleys so will put it all way in a folder marked wrong . Too bad as there were two probate packet -- one for Charley and the other for Charles, but both contained the same info.

Sandy,
I can't find an Edwin that would have been born that early in any of the
lines I'm trying to track--which doesn't include the Benjamin line.
