Ronald Delos Cooley was born in Crofton, Knox County, Nebraska 28 Jan 1906, son of Herbert Merton (Mert) Cooley and Elizabeth Holliday. Late the next year a second child, Merton Beth Cooley, was born (7 Dec 1907) shortly after which Elizabeth died of complications. Ronald went to live with his grandparents Robert Reed Cooley and Beth was taken in and raised by his uncle Robert Berton Cooley and his wife, Carrie Louella Miller. Ronald attended grade school in Crofton, Nebr, and high schools in Flagler, Colo and Otis, Colo. While in Crofton he helped his father, Mert, in his newspaper business then continued to help at his uncle Bert's newspaper, the Otis Independent, in Otis, Colo in 1911. He learned to operate the Linotype at the Independent and with his early immersion in newspapering, Ronald decided to continue in the business. He first attended the University of Denver then the University of Colorado in Boulder Colo where he attained a bachelor's degree in journalism. While at the University, Ronald was a member of Kappa Sigma social fraternity and of Sigma Delta Chi journalistic fraternity where he served as president in his senior year. After graduation he took a newspaper job with Smith-Brooks Printing Company in Denver. In succeeding years he also worked at the Record Stockman, the Denver Post, and one summer, at the Steamboat Springs Pilot. Eventually he returned to Akron, Colo., to work at his Uncle Bert's newspaper, the Akron News-Reporter. In Denver he was married to his high school sweetheart, Irene Skinner, on July 20, 1935. They had two children, Luanne b. 22 May 1940, and a son, James Ronald b. 16 Dec 1943. Luanne was married to Larry Winkelman of Dodge City, Kan., and James married Maria Morrison of Holdrege, Nebr. On February 15, 1937, Ronald and his cousin Dale moved to Limon, Colo., to operate the Eastern Colorado Leader as a partnership set up by Bert. About two years later the paper was combined with the Genoa Sentinal and renamed the Limon Leader. The partnership continued until June 1, 1972, when the newspaper was sold to Norman R. Sunderland and Associates. "During the Eisenhower administration, Ron [was offered] the job of Postmaster at Limon. Before accepting the position Ron lost a lot of sleep while pondering the multitude of details and irritations that would be a part of a postmaster's daily life. 'I got as far as the swearing-in part of it, then decided not to take it', Ron recalled". Ronald served as Mayor of Limon for two terms and as a city councilman for several terms. In 1955, Ronald and Dale, were honored as "Editors of the Year" by the University of Colorado Department of journalism. He was a member of the Colorado Press Association while active in the newspaper business and served on the board of directors, as well as in many different committees. He was a member of the Limon Lions Club of which he was a charter member, a member of the First United Methodist Church of Limon, and an honorary member of the Limon High School "L" Club. Ronald Delos Cooley died January 11, 1980 ae 73. He is buried at Pershing Memorial Cemetery (Limon Cemetery), Limon, Lincoln County, Colorado. Note that Ronald Delos died just 37 days after the death of his cousin Clifford Coyne Cooley (both raised as brothers) who had died on 5 Dec 1979 in Akron Colorado. One's death close to the death of a sibling or close relative is called the bereavement effect. This effect came into play in this family again in 1994 when cousins-raised-as-brothers Robert Miller Cooley and Merton Beth Cooley died just one day apart, Beth 3 Nov 1992, Bob 4 Nov 1992. | Cooley, Ronald Delos (I25)

South Shields town (or locally known just as Shields) is a coastal town in Tyne and Wear, England, located at the mouth of the River Tyne to Tyne Dock, and about 4.84 miles downstream from Newcastle upon Tyne. It is part of the metropolitan borough of South Tyneside, which includes the riverside towns of Jarrow and Hebburn and the villages of Boldon, Cleadon and Whitburn. The first settlers of the area were the Brigantes, although there is no evidence they built a settlement within present town. Earlier Celtic inscriptions were found as evident in Caer Urfa, the original name for South Shields. The Romans built a fort here around AD 160, and expanded it around AD 208 to help supply their soldiers along Hadrian's Wall. The current town was founded in 1245 and developed as a fishing port. Salt-panning expanded as an industry in 1499. During the Civil War, parliament's Scottish allies captured the town and caused the royalists to flee south.
In 1974 the administrative County Durham and the county boroughs were abolished by the Local Government Act 1972 and County Durham was reconstituted as a non-metropolitan county. The reconstituted County Durham lost territory to the north east (around Gateshead, South Shields and Sunderland) to Tyne and Wear and to the south east (around Hartlepool) to Cleveland.
South Shields county is a metropolitan county in northeast England around the mouths of the Rivers Tyne and Wear. It came into existence in 1974 after the passage of the Local Government Act 1972. It consists of the five metropolitan boroughs of South Tyneside, North Tyneside, City of Newcastle upon Tyne, Gateshead and the City of Sunderland. Prior to reforms in 1974, the territory comprising the county of Tyne and Wear straddled the border between the counties of Northumberland and County Durham. North Tyneside and Newcastle upon Tyne had previously existed within of Northumberland, whereas South Tyneside, Gateshead and Sunderland were all previously within the borders of County Durham, with the River Tyne forming the border of the two counties. Tyne and Wear is bounded on the east by the North Sea, and as a ceremonial county, shares borders with Northumberland to the north and County Durham to the south. | Aitchison, Joseph (I385)

Surname of Lt Silas Sears wife Anna In Descendants of Richard Sares, May says "perhaps Bursell" indicating that only the first letter of the last name ("B") is known for sure. Great Migration Begins states "...Anna, probably daughter of James Bursell of Yarmouth". The source for this was Records of the Colony of New Plymouth in New England by Shurtleff and Pulsiver, 1855. Since there appears to be no solid source for Anna's surname, one must rely on secondary sources. With regard to Mr James Bursell's will: On 1 Nov 1676 Emott Bursell and Silas Sears were appointed administrators of the Estate of James Bursell of Yarmouth. This is clearcut circumstantial evidence that Silas Sears Sr's wife's surname was Bursell. | Bursell, Anna (I483)

Swan Township is one of the twelve townships of Vinton County, Ohio, United States. The 2000 census found 796 people in the township. Located in the northern part of the county, it borders the following townships: Washington Township, Hocking County: north; Starr Township, Hocking County: northeast corner; Brown Township: east; Madison Township: southeast; Elk Township: south; Jackson Township: west Benton Township, Hocking County: northwest. It is the only Swan Township statewide, although there is a Swan Creek Township in Fulton County, and a Swanton Township in Lucas County.
Note: While Edna was born in South Bloomingville, Benton Twp, Hocking County (formed in 1818), Perl was born in Swan Twp, Vinton County (formed in 1850) but in both cases, the parents are residing in South Bloomingville. These townships are adjacent even though in different counties. More research will be needed to sort out Perl's seemngly disjointed birthplace.

Thomas Sherwood, born in Sherwood Forest*, Nottingham, England, 1586, died in Fairfield, Ct, 1655. He sailed from Ipswich April 21, 1634 in the good ship Francis (John Cutting, Master), and landed in Boston in June of the same year, accompanied by his wife, Alice born 1587, and four children: Ann, born 1620; Rose, 1623; Thomas, 1624; Rebecca, 1625. He settled first at Wethersfield, Connecticut Colony, where his name appears on the second list of settlers other than those from Watertown. He settled in Fairfield, Connecticut Colony, as early as 1643, when his name appears on the Stanford** land records. He served as deputy with Roger Ludlow in the General court, 1650. He brought with him to Fairfield his second wife, Mary [?] by whom he had six more children. His will is dated July 21, 1655 and proved October 26, 1655. *Cutter's assertion that Thomas was born in Sherwood Forest is a flight of fancy that cannot be supported. Also, Dutchess-Beekman Patent Settlers asserts that Thomas was born in Ipswich which cannot be supported either. Just because he sailed from Ipswich doesn't mean he was born there. **Stanford is an erroneous reference. This probably should be Stratford. According to Fairfield County Cemeteries at http://www.ctgenweb.org/county/cofairfield there is a Thomas Sherwood d. 1656 buried at the Old Burying Ground in Stratford.
30 April 1634. Passengers of the Francis of Ipswich, Mr. John Cutting, captain, bound for New England (landed at Plymouth or Boston, MA): from the Pubic Record Office, Kew, Richmond, Surrey TW9 4DU, England).

After a short stay in Massachusetts he and his family removed to Wethersfield Conn; removed to Stamford Conn, in 1641 sold out in 1648 and removed to Fairfield Conn where he died in 1655.

He was propounded* in Octber of 1663 and made a freeman on the second of May in 16??. He was appointed a lieutenant by the General Court, receiving his commission in 1709 and served under Col. William Whiting in Capt. Mathew Allyn's Company in the Queen Anne War.
*propound to suggest or put forward for consideration
On 23 Apr 1662 King Charles II granted Connecticut a charter as a self-governing corporate colony, with an eastern boundary at Narragansett Bay, overlapping part of the Rhode Island patent. Rhode Island did not concede its claim to territory between the Pawcatuck River and Narragansett Bay (the Narragansett Country), but Connecticut quickly took control of the area. (Bowen, Disputes, 32; Swindler, 2:135-136) On 10 May 1666 the Colony of Connecticut created four original counties: Fairfield, Hartford, New Haven, and New London. (Conn. Col. Recs., 2:34-35). Thus, Windsor became a part of Hartford County | Phelps, Timothy (I610)

Whitefriars is an area in the Ward of Farringdon Without in the City of London. The area takes its name from the medieval Carmelite religious house, known as the White Friars, that lay here between about 1247 and 1538. Only a crypt remains today of what was once a late 14th century priory belonging to a Carmelite order popularly known as the White Friars because of the white mantles they wore on formal occasions. | Chetwood, Richard (I674)

They landed at Nantasket* Massachusetts on 30 May 1630. The company settled in Dorchester** Massachusetts, the first settlers and founders of that place.

Tewkesbury Abbey (offically the Church of St. Mary the Virgin in Tewkesbury) is a large and magnificent parish church in a small market town just 10 miles north of Gloucester. A Saxon Benedictine monastery was first founded on this site in the 8th century, which was thoroughly destroyed by the Danes. A new abbey, which still stands today, was founded by a Norman nobleman in 1092. Abbot Giraldus and 39 monks moved to Tewkesbury from Cranborne in Dorset in 1102. The nave was complete in 1121 and the entire church was completed by about 1150. In the 14th century, the abbey church was given a Decorated Gothic makeover. The chancel was renovated and the nave roof was given magnificent lierne vaulting, with narrative and decorative bosses. The tombs and chantry chapels added around the chancel in 1350-1450 reflect the importance of such memorials to the local aristocracy. The Dissolution of the Monasteries (1538-41) meant the destruction of the monastic buildings of Tewkesbury Abbey in 1539, but the town saved the church by paying Henry VIII | Phelps, William (I613)

Woburn was first settled in 1640 near Horn Pond, a primary source of the Mystic River, and was officially incorporated in 1642. At that time the area included present day towns of Woburn, Winchester, Burlington, and parts of Stoneham and Wilmington. In 1730 Wilmington separated from Woburn. In 1799 Burlington separated from Woburn; in 1850 Winchester did so, too. Woburn got its name from Woburn, Bedfordshire. Woburn played host to the first religious ordination in the Americas on Nov. 22, 1642. Rev. Thomas Carter was sworn in by many of the most prominent men of New England including John Cotton, minister of the First Church of Boston, Richard Mather minister of the First Church of Dorchester, and Capt. Edward Johnson co-founder of the church and town of Woburn. Johnson is regarded as "the father of Woburn." He served as the first town clerk, represented the town in the Massachusetts General Court, made the first map of Massachusetts, and wrote the first history of the colony. | Richardson, Thomas (I1776)

The American Genealogist (TAG) was founded in July 1922 by Jacobus, Donald Lines as the New Haven Genealogical Magazine. The first eight volumes consist primarily of the editor's compendium, Families of Ancient New Haven. When that project was completed, the journal became, with the July 1932 issue (the first number of the ninth volume), The American Genealogist and New Haven Genealogical Magazine and was dedicated to the elevation of genealogical scholarship, through carefully documented analyses of genealogical problems and through short compiled genealogies. In 1937 the subtitle was dropped, and the journal became simply The American Genealogist, usually abbreviated as TAG. Present address: P.O. Box 398

The Magna Charta Surieties, 1215 on page 24 states "Audrey Cotton, dau of Sir John Cotton" but I cannot confirm that. It would be nice if this John Cotton were an ancestor of the famous, god-fearing John Cotton of the Massachusetts Bay Colony but I have not pursued it.

A tavern and several mills were established in the area [of present Mount Carmel] by 1743, which was then part of New Haven. This led to the founding of the Mount Carmel Ecclesiastical Society in 1757. There being no separation of church and state at the time, this was necessary before a town government could be established. A petition to establish a separate town was granted in 1786, with the name Hamden chosen for the English statesman John Hampden. Presently, Mount Carmel is a neighborhood in the northeastern portion of the town of Hamden, Connecticut. | Family: Wait Chatterton / Dickerman Susanna (F926)
