4. | Benjamin1 Cooley (1.Joan1) was born about 1615 in Tring, Hertfordshire, England; was christened on 25 Feb 1615/16 in Tring Parish, St Albans Archdeaconry, Hertfordshire, England; died on 17 Aug 1684 in Springfield, Hampshire Co, Massachusetts. Notes: According to research completed in 2000 by Eleanor L. Cooley Rue, circumstantial evidence links the Benjamin Cooley christened in Tring, Hertfordshire, England (chr 1615) to the Benjamin Cooley of Springfield through the posited marriage of Richard Sikes and Phebe Cooley (chr 1609), Benjamin's sister. The only evidence found by Cooley-Rue was in Benjamin Cooley's will which used the phrase "cousen Sikes". She concluded that "cousen" meant brother-in-law which it did not. Cousen was primarily used to refer to neices and nephews. A major problem with Cooley-Rue's logic is that Richard and Phebe Sikes's church activities, and his becoming a freeman are well documented* while there is no record of Benjamin and Sarah Cooley's church activities prior to 1643 (to become an accepted member of Massachusetts Bay Colony church membership was mandatory). Assuming unaccompanied women seldom made the voyage from England to New England and further assuming Phebe Cooley and Benjamin Cooley traveled together, it appears to me that information about Benjamin and Sarah must be uncovered before a link can be made between Phebe Sykes and Benjamin Cooley. *Richard Sykes joins Dorchester church 4 Nov 1639; he becomes a freeman 13 May 1640 in Cambridge; Richard marries Phebe Sykes 13 May 1640 also the date she joined the Dorchester church. Their first child Rebecca born 6 Dec 1640 in Roxbury (Pynchon's hometown). Benjamin1 married Sarah (wife of Ensign Benjamin Cooley) [?] about 1642 in Probably in the New World. Sarah was born about 1621 in Probably England; died on 23 Aug 1684 in Springfield, Hampshire Co, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

8. | Bethia Cooley (4.Benjamin12, 1.Joan1) was born on 16 Sep 1643 in Springfield, Non-County Area 1, Massachusetts Bay Colony; died on 9 Dec 1711 in Springfield, Hampshire Co, Massachusetts. Notes: Bethia Cooley's birthdate is the benchmark for Benjamin Cooley's appearance in the New World. Yet, Springfield was not an immigration port for English migrators so a considerable length time had to elapse from Benjamin Cooley's landing in Massachusetts (parobably Salem) to the time he gave birth to Bethia in Springfield. Included in this span of time would have been Benjamin and Sarah's marriage and their admission to a church. Debrett Ancestry Research, in a 1987 report for the Cooley Family Association, concluded they were not married before they left England. Bethia married Henry Chapin on 5 Dec 1664 in Massachusetts. Henry (son of Samuel Chapin and Living) was born about 1629-1630 in England; was christened on 25 Jan 1629/30 in Berry Pomeroy, Devonshire, England; died on 16 Aug 1718 in Springfield, Hampshire Co, Massachusetts.

Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: Carroll[4] (Andrew[3] Peter[2] John william[1]) was the first of the children of Andrew and Naomi to be born in New York state. He was born 1 March 1814, a ruddy healthy boy until about the age of 14 or 15 when according to his brother Andrew Jr he caught a severe cold while helping his father and Benjamin get out some timber at New Fane [Newfane]. From that time on he suffered from asthma. In spite of this he was a fine singer. He went to Canada and taught school for awhile when still quite young, and then when a vacancy occured on the religious circuit, he took the place and continued for several years. He preached at Lockport for almost a year, at the close of which he married Elizabeth Johnson of Canada, and joined the Genesee Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He was stationed at Black Rock and Tonowanda, then at Knowlesville where he preached nearly all of one day. He was a very popular preacher and was remembered very affectionately by his associates and beloved by all who knew him. He was taken sick and died of bronchial pneumonia at the age of 29, Jan 1843.

127. | Andrew Sutherland (69.Naomi7, 43.Benjamin56, 31.Benjamin45, 21.Benjamin34, 11.Daniel3, 4.Benjamin12, 1.Joan1) was born on 22 Jul 1818 in Newfane, Niagara Co, New York; died on 27 Feb 1891 in Rochester, Monroe Co, New York. Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: Andrew Sutherland Jr (Andrew3 Peter2 John William1) was born 22 July 1818 in Cambria, Niagara County, New York and died 27 Feb 1891 in Rochester, Monroe County, New York. On 7 Aug 1848 he was married to Mary A. McLean in Dundee, Yates County, New York. She was born 16 Mar 1828, the daughter of William and Elizabeth (DeGroot) McLean of Starkey, NY. Mary died in November 1899 in Rochester. They had 7 children. In the 1850 US Census for Yates County NY is William McLean, born New York state, and his wife, Elizabeth, born in New Jersey. William is a farmer worth $17,650. Living with them are: Cornelius F. Mclean age 20; Cyrus F. McLean age 15: Margaret Dye age 31; William McLean Dye age 13; Elizabeth McLean Dye age 10; Nargaret K. Dye age 5; Nary M. Dye age 3; and Eliza F. Dye age 1. Altho it has not been proved, we feel this Margaret Dye is a widow with her children, living with her parents and brothers. Andrew Jr is the one to whom we are indebted for writing a Journal telling of his early life and pioneer times in western New York. He described himself looking as much like his father as any of his siblings, only taller than the 5'8" of his father. He wrote the journal presumably toward the end of his life, possibly after his retirement in 1886. The copy of the journal we have ends in the middle of a sentence indicating that he was either too ill to go on, or that over the years further pages may have been lost. The following is copied from the memorial book of the Genesee Conference in 1891: The Rev. Andrew Sutherland was born in Cambria, Niagara County New York 22 July 1818. He died in Rochester, Monroe County, New York on 27 Feb 1891. He was converted under the ministry of the Rev. Wm. D. Buck, at the age of 19, and became a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. As a probationer into the Genesee Conference he was received as a Lyons New York in 1846 and into full membership in 1848 at Rochester. The Conference was divided at the session of 1848 and Brother Sutherland became a member of the East Genesee division. He continued to labor...within the territory of the old Genesee Conference...His effective relation was [continuous] until 1886 when, on account of growing infirmities, and especially of gradual failure of sight, made it impossible for him to the study or read. He accepted a superannuated [too old] relation but his residence during the period of his superannuation was still in Rochester where he enjoyed the companionship not only of old friends, but especially of most of the members his own beloved family. He leaves three sons, Willian Andrew and Arthur Eugene, honored and successful members of the legal profession in Rochester, and the Rev. Ward Taylor, pastor of a Congregational church in Meadville, Pa. Two daughters also mourn his loss, Miss Leela M., a teacher in the Deaf-Mute Institution of Rochester, and Miss Anna G. who has always resided with her parents. Physically, Mr. Sutherland was of delicate, apparently frail, oganization; and when he joined the Conference his early demise was expected by his friends, but by a life of severely temperate and correct habits, supported by open-air exercise, such as was demanded of the earlier itinerant, he developed expected powers of endurance, doing much faithful and not little heroic service. He yielded up his life at last in good old age, more on account of exhausted vital resources than of acute disease. His end was cheered by the constant and loving ministries of his own family, for which he expressed great gratitude to God. His end was peace, like the quiet, unclouded setting of the summer Sun. His life work had been so completely done that nothing was left to do in the dying hour. Andrew married Mary McLean on 7 Aug 1848 in Dundee, Yates Co, New York. Mary (daughter of Living and Living) was born on 16 Mar 1828 in Starkey, Yates Co, New York; died about Nov 1899 in Rochester, Monroe Co, New York. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart] |

Notes: Cooley, Andrew Wood, the first Bishop of the Brighton Ward (Salt Lake Stake), Salt Lake county, Utah, was born May 24, 1837, at Bruce, McComb county, Michigan, the son of Benjamin Cooley and Clarissa Wood. In 1858 (June 1st) he married Dinah Briggs at St. Claire, Michigan. She never came to Utah and had no children. Bro. Cooley migrated to Utah in 1863, where he became a convert to "Mormonism" and was baptitzed in 1864, being the only one of his father's family who joined the Church and also the only one of his father's children who raised a family. In Utah he engaged in farming and stock raising, and in 1866 (Feb. 17th) he married Mary Asenath Huntington, who was born May 31, 1846, in Cambria, Niagara county, New York, and bore her husband seven children, namely, Clarissa M., Andrew W., Benetta B., George W., Harold Ghesa, Chester N., and May Asenath. When the Saints residing on the west side of the Jordan river, immediately west of Salt Lake City, were organized into the Brighton Ward of the Salt Lake Stake, Bro. Cooley was chosen and ordained a Bishop and set apart to preside over said Ward, the ordination taking place Feb. 24, 1867. He held that position until 1877. In 1868 (Feb. 22nd) Bishop Cooley, yielding obedience to the higher law of marriage, was united to Jane Jenkins, who was born June 25, 1844, and who bore her husband eight children, namely, William J., John B., Henry W., Alva L., Melissa J., Fanny Elizabeth, Samuel B., and Ethel C. On the same date (Feb. 22, 1868) Bro. Cooley married Rachel Caroline Coon (daughter of Abraham Coon of Ohio and Elizabeth Yarbrough of Tennessee) who was born March 22, 1848, at Council Bluffs, Iowa, and came to Utah with her parents in 1850. She bore her husband nine children, namely, Samuel B., Idabel, Maretta E., Isabel, Lucretia May, Oscar W., Andrew W. junior, Abraham C., and Francis Ann. In 1870 (February 14th) Bro. Cooley married Ann Hazen (daughter of Robert Hazen and Mary Ann Bainbridge of Newcastle, England) who was born Sept. 25, 1854, in England. Her children (eight in number) were Marcus R., John S., Ezra H., Mary A., Martha J., Inez, Arthur D., and Walter A. Bishop Cooley died Oct. 11, 1887, at his home in Brighton. His descendants in 1919 numbered more than 120 souls; they are all members of the Church and all abstainers from the use of intoxicants and tobacco. A number of them are occupying prominent Church and secular positions in the community. Thus Ezra H. Cooley acts as Stake superintendent of Sunday schools in the Hyrum Stake, Utah; Henry W. Cooley is superintendent of the West Jordan (Salt Lake county) Sunday school; Lucretia May is treasurer in the Liberty Stake Relief Society, and many others hold positions in different Wards. Abraham C. has filled a mission to Germany, Ezra H. to Australia and Henry W. to the Central States. Arthur Dyke Cooley is a practising physician at Brigham City, Utah; Abraham C. Cooley is agriculturist, in charge of demonstration of reclamation projects for the U. S. government in sixteen western States, and Lucretia May held the position of deputy county clerk in Salt Lake county for nine years. This large family has been remarkably united, each working for the benefit of the whole, with four of the best mothers that were ever given in marriage to any man. For so-called infraction of the Edmund's law* Bishop Cooley served two terms in the Utah penitentiary, during which he suffered severely from the illness which soon after his release caused his demise.

Notes: In 1860, according to the US Census, Thomas M Cooly was residing with his brother, Andrew S Cooly, in La Porte, Sierra County, California. His occupation was 'miner', and, strangely, the answer to the question "Married Within Year" was "Yes". However, only to two Cooley brothers are living in dwelling #231 in La Porte.

148. | Michigan Census Child 1 Cooley (114.Andrew8, 67.Noah7, 43.Benjamin56, 31.Benjamin45, 21.Benjamin34, 11.Daniel3, 4.Benjamin12, 1.Joan1) was born about Nov 1834 in Probably Michigan Territory, Oakland County; died about 1834-1840 in Michigan or Iowa. Notes: This entry because of the 1840 US Iowa census entry Female Age 5-10. She could have been older than Stephen W. or Andrew L.

Notes: The 1840 Iowa census lists a male child under 5 whereas he does not appear in the 1850 census. I placed him older than Noah because of the gap between Thomas (17 in 1850) and Noah (12 in 1850). |

Notes: ROBERT REED COOLEY ANSWERS LAST CALLThe Flagler (Colorado) News Vol. V, No. 50, 3 Jan 1918, p. 4., col. 3 Will A. Borland, ed This community was grieved last Friday when the word was spread about town that Robert Cooley had passed away on 28 Dec 1917. Mr. Cooley was a man who was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him, and while the writer had known him but two years, still I had learned to love and respect him. His genial disposition and hearty greeting had endeared him to our people and he will be greatly missed in the community. Robert Reed Cooley was born to Andrew Sutherland Cooley and Salome Warren Cooley in Garnavillo, Iowa 14 May 1847 and died at his home near Flagler, Colo., December 28, 1917, at the age of 70 years, 7 months and 14 days, death being due to apoplexy [a sudden loss of consciousness resulting when the rupture or occlusion of a blood vessel leads to oxygen lack in the brain]. Funeral services were held at the Congregational church in Flagler on Monday morning, December 31st [1918], at 11 o'clock, conducted by the pastor, Rev. A. W. Moore. His text was found in Phil. 1-21: "To me, to live is Christ, to die is gain." Businesses of Flagler were closed during services. He lived with his parents in Garnavillo [Clayton County, Iowa] until young manhood, when he and his father, A. S. Cooley, disposed of his [?] property near that place and purchased a farm near McGregor, Iowa, where he was in the lumber business several years. He was united in marriage with Stella A. Owen on December 10, 1874 in McGregor, Clayton County, Iowa. To this union were born four children: Twins Herbert Merton (Mert) and Robert Berton (Bert) on 20 Oct 1875 in McGregor, Clayton County, Iowa; Verne Alton on 8 May 1880 in McGregor, and Glenn Syren on 14 Jul 1894 in Plainview, Pierce County, Nebraska. Herbert Merton was drowned in the Missouri River near Yankton, S.D., 4 Nov 1914 and Verne Alton died at McGregor Iowa, 5 Aug 1881, at the age of 15 months. In the spring of 1886 Robert Reed and his family consisting of himself, wife Stella, and twin sons Mert and Bert moved to Plainview, Nebr., where he resided until the spring of 1910 when he migrated to Kit Carson County Colorado where he bought a relinquishment northwest of Flagler. Robert Cooley was a true man; a man who gave almost his entire life to the service of others. For three years he took care of a helpless brother who was wounded in the Civil War [Peter S. Cooley]. This ordeal practically undermined his health, but he never complained. Mr. Cooley is survived by his wife, Stella, and two sons, Robert Berton of Otis, Colo., and Glenn Syren of Flagler. He is also survived by six grand-children, one of whom, Ronald Cooley, has lived with his grandparents since the death of his mother, Elizabeth Holliday Cooley, in December of 1907. A large number of sympathizing friends and associates assembled to pay their last respects to one whom they loved, and the business houses of Flagler were closed during the services. The floral offerings were abundant and beautiful. The last remains were laid to their final rest in the Flagler cemetery. The News joins with the large circle of friend and acquaintances in extending sympathy to the bereaved wife and children in their time of sorrow. Robert married Stella Alfresine Owen on 10 Dec 1874 in McGregor, Clayton Co, Iowa. Stella (daughter of Ambrose Owen and Miranda L. Diggins) was born on 21 May 1850 in Alden Twp, McHenry Co, Illinois; died on 10 Jun 1920 in Flagler, Kit Carson Co, Colorado; was buried on 11 Jun 1920 in Flagler Cemetery, Kit Carson Co, Colorado.

Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: Orville Dale Cooley was born April 5, 1903 in a small house in Plainview, Nebraska. He started school at McLean, Nebraska primarily because his father, Robert Berton, had a job teaching there. It was the year Halley's Comet was visible (1910) and he went outside each evening to see it. He recalls his mother (Carrie Louella Miller) telling him he would see it again "...but I would be an old man when I did. I did see the comet return in 1986 but I didn't feel nearly as old as my mother said I would!" He went to Colorado with his parents March 1, 1910. They had taken a homestead nine miles northwest of Flagler. They had tried to farm but the weather was bad 1910-1911 so both parents were employed as rural teachers in schools north of Flagler. R.B. taught at the Huntley School and Lou taught at the Patten School. In 1911 Dale's father (R.B. or "Bert") started a newspaper in Otis, Colorado, "The Otis Independent". In 1914 with the untimely death of his father's twin brother, Herbert Merton ("Mert") who ran a newspaper in Crofton, Nebraska, Bert sold the Otis Independent and the family moved to Crofton to continue the running Mert's business. Bert eventually could not tolerate the climate in eastern Nebraska, having severe allergies, so in November 1916 the family repurchased the Otis Independent and once again took up residence in that tiny Washington County town. Dale was employed in his father's newspaper but business "was something less than sensational" so, as eldest child in the family, he worked other jobs around the town. He was a cream tester, a soda jerk in more than one drug store, a harvester (pitching wheat to a threshing machine), and a railroad extra on a gang consisting of two Native Americans, 71 Mexican nationals and an Italian boss. Later he got a job in a clothing store where he "something of the cleaning and pressing business, aside from waiting on trade." With the help of a Methodist minister Dale obtained a scholarship to the University of Denver and started school in the fall semester of 1923. While still attending DU he married Mildred Skinner whose father, L.E. Skinner, operated a general merchandise store in Otis. They had gone to school together but Dale says they were not childhood sweethearts. They were married for almost 68 years. Dale and Mildred had two children, Robert Leonard, born 25 Jan 1933 in Otis, Colorado, and Jill Irene, born 17 Jul 1935 in Akron, Colorado. Dale and his cousin Ronald D. Cooley owned and operated The Limon Leader from 15 Feb 1937 through 1 Jun 1972. Dale was very active in state press affairs. He was a member of the board of directors of the Colorado Press Association for several terms and then served as vice president in 1960 and president of the organization in 1961. Also, he was a life member of the Denver Press Club. He was active in Republican politics serving as county chairman for two terms and as a precinct committeeman and delegate to state conventions numerous times. He was one of the founders of the Lincoln County Colorado Historical Society serving as a co-editor of a county history, "Where the Wagons Rolled". Dale was a member of the AF and AM Masonic Lincoln Lodge #146 in Limon, Colo; a 50-year member of Kappa Sigma social fraternity; a member of Sigma Delta Chi professional journalist fraternity. He was a member of the Limon board of education for two terms during which time it was instrumental in acquiring 15 acres of land upon which school buildings and athletic facilities now stand. Dale was active in the organization of the Limon Chamber of Commerce in 1946 and he was a member of the Limon Town Board for two terms. Orville married Alice Mildred Skinner on 11 Jul 1926 in Otis, Washington Co, Colorado. Alice (daughter of Leonard E Skinner and Ethel Campbell Powell) was born on 26 Mar 1905 in Clarence, Shelby Co, Missouri; died on 28 Oct 1996 in Riverside, Riverside Co, California; was buried on 1 Nov 1996 in Pershing Memorial Cemetery, Limon, Lincoln Co, Colorado.

Notes: 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. Ronald married Irene Elva Skinner on 19 Jul 1935 in Denver, Denver Co, Colorado. Irene (daughter of Leonard E Skinner and Ethel Campbell Powell) was born on 29 Jul 1907 in Anabel, Macon Co, Missouri; died on 6 Dec 1990 in Hugo, Lincoln Co, Colorado; was buried on 10 Dec 1990 in Pershing Memorial Cemetery, Limon, Lincoln Co, Colorado.

259. | Merton Beth Cooley (228.Herbert10, 155.Robert9, 114.Andrew8, 67.Noah7, 43.Benjamin56, 31.Benjamin45, 21.Benjamin34, 11.Daniel3, 4.Benjamin12, 1.Joan1) was born on 7 Dec 1907 in Crofton, Knox Co, Nebraska; died on 3 Nov 1992 in Sterling, Logan Co, Colorado; was buried on 6 Nov 1992 in Akron, Washington Co, Colorado. Notes: Merton Beth Cooley was born to Herbert Merton (Mert) and Elizabeth Holliday Cooley on Dec 7, 1907, in Crofton, Neb. His mother died in 1908 from complications of childbirth. His father was editor and publisher of the Crofton Journal so Beth and his elder brother, Ronald literally grew up in the newspaper business. On 14 Nov 1914, a car in which Herbert Merton was a passenger plunged off the Yankton pontoon bridge over the Missouri River drowning him and another passenger in the car. His body was never recovered. Robert Berton Cooley (a twin brother of Herbert Merton) and his wife Carrie Louella Miller had homesteaded to a farm near Flagler Colorado in 1910 and in 1912 Bert had started the Otis Independent in Otis, Colo., 59 miles north of Flagler. Upon learning of his brother's death, Bert sold the Independent and he and his wife and two sons moved back to Crofton to take over the newspaper. They immediately took in and raised Beth and his elder brother Ronald as members of the family. Beth was still just a small boy at this time but he was already working in the family business. "I could read upside down when I was about four or five, and I was hand-setting type before I went to school. To get the paper out, we were hand-setting type day and night. Us kids never knew anything else." In 1916, because of a worsening allergy condition, Bert sold the Crofton Journal and the family returned to Colorado to resume operation of the Otis Independent, this time with two more "sons" in tow. Beth attended school in Otis, graduating from Otis High School in 1927. He also proved to be a fine football player. In his younger years, Beth played trumpet in a local dance band called "The Night Hawks" and became an excellent performer. After graduation, Beth attended the University of Colorado for a short time, later moving back to Otis to help Bert with the newspaper. Beth married Viola Myfanwy Kyffin on May 25, 1929, in Otis and they had one son, Herbert Merton. His Uncle Bert continued to operate the Independent until the fall of 1928 when, in a trade, he swapped the Otis Independent for ownership in the Monte Vista Tribune, Monte Vista, Colorado. Within a few months, Bert disposed of the Tribune and the family moved to Akron, Colo., where he bought the Akron Semi-Weekly News and the Akron Reporter combining the two papers on February 28, 1929 into the Akron News-Reporter. Its first edition was published on 7 Mar 1929. Beth was an adept Linotype operator and he had a natural bent for mechanics of all kinds. Through the years he became known as one of the best repairmen on all printing machinery and was sought after by other newspapers in northeastern Colorado for repair work. On the retirement of the original owners of the Akron News-Reporter, his Uncle Bert and Aunt Lou, Beth and his cousin, Coyne Cooley, became the sole owners of the Akron News-Reporter, which they continued to operate until 1979. All in all, Beth had worked in the weekly newspaper business almost 68 years: from a four-year-old kid folding newspapers at the Crofton Journal to the sale of the Akron News-Reporter in 1979. In keeping with his interest in mechanics, he had a life-long love affair with the automobile (his favorite, Buick). Beth was a member of the First Presbyterian Church and a charter member of the Akron Rotary Club. He was honored as a Paul Harris Fellow. Merton Beth Cooley died at Sterling Regional MedCenter on Tuesday, Nov. 3, 1992 ae 84. Funeral services were held Friday, Nov. 6 at 10 a.m. from the First Presbyterian Church in Akron with Rev. Kyle Weir officiating. Interment followed in the Akron Cemetery with Yeamans & Gordon Memorial Chapel in charge of arrangements. Merton married Viola Myfanwy Kyffin on 25 May 1929 in Golden, Jefferson Co, Colorado. Viola (daughter of Seth James Kyffin and Julia S. Oram) was born on 20 Jan 1908 in Denver, Denver Co, Colorado; died on 1 May 1995 in Brush (Sunset Manor), Ft Morgan Co, Colorado; was buried on 4 May 1995 in Akron Cemetery, Washington Co, Colorado.
