Notes

There are no official documents for Leo, same as Lyle. Most of this data came from an interview the author had with his Grandma Lou Miller in 1968. She had a Miller-Cooley Bible with genealogical data but the present location of this Bible is unknown. She was reluctant to talk about Leo as about Gwen. I also had an interview with Orville Dale Cooley in 1993. Dale wrote extensively about the history of this Cooley family but knew very little about Leo. Apparently he lived 14 days. There is no burial information about Leo but it stands to reason if both Lyle and Gwen (stillbirth) had gravestones there should be one for Leo somewhere in Antelope County.
(Research):Royal is a village in Antelope County, Nebraska, United States. The population was 63 at the 2010 census. Established in 1890, the history of Royal began at Hering's Mill, located four and one-half miles north of the present town site. In the beginning and for a number of years thereafter, the community was known as Savage. The community was renamed after Royal Thayer, who helped establish the post office.
