I have been in touch with a descendant of James Cooley son of Mathis Cooley, James has been a mystery to me since the shooting of his fathers killer. She told me that her gg grandmother Cynthia J. (Jackline) Cooley married George Stapp in Comanche, TX and that she grew up as a Rittenhouse in Comanche County, Texas. She did search the 1880 census, and found a Cynthia Rittenhouse along with her mother Elizabeth and other sibs, and the head of house hold was a Mr. Rittenhouse. She had always know her gg grandmother as Cooley until talking to a relative who told her that Cynthia's mother remarried Mr. rittenhouse and Cynthia carried his name. Now I am searching for the marriage which should give me an idea of when James might have died or maybe a clue as to what happened to James Cooley.

It's been quiet around here!
I've update the lead-in page to the various Cooley families I've been
tracking for DNA purposes. It's better organized with 12-marker results at
beginning of each group.
