| 5670 | The Tipton Advertiser April 5, 1928 Charles L. Cooley Charles L. Cooley was born in Livingstone Co., Ill. on June 25, 1869, and passed away at his home in Rochester, Cedar Co., Iowa, March 31, 1928, at the age of 58 years, 9 months and 6 days. The year after his birth, the family moved to the village of Rochester, where practically all of his life has been spent. In the year 1900, he was united in marriage to Miss Emma Gritton, who preceded him in death in the year 1913. Although he was not a member of any church, nor affiliated with any of the fraternal orders, he was a man of positive convictions. He was a firm believer in the power and efficacy of prayer as being more essential than medicinal service, and accepted some of the plain teachings of the Word of God as the fixed rule of his life. About four years ago, he was injured by a fall on the cement walk, from which he never fully recovered. On the evening of March 30, he had a stroke of apoplexy, and suffered greatly as a result, frequently lapsing into unconsciousness. When conscious, he was unable to make any audible utterance. On the following evening, just as the sun was setting in the western horizon, his spirit left its tenement of human clay and returned to God who gave it. He leaves to mourn his departure from this life, his two brothers, Henry Edward Cooley of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and Byron A. of Rochester. Funeral services were held in the Rochester church on Monday afternoon, conducted by the pastor, Rev. M. L. Hill of Bennett, after which the remains were interred in the Rochester Cemetery to await the call of the Resurrection Morn. | Cooley, Charles L. (I2348)

| 5690 | Trails West: A history of the Hoskins family. By Robert J. Hoskins, Ella N. Nielsen Hoskins, and Donna Hoskins Higley. March 1993. Page 20-22. George Washington Hoskins is the fourth in the genealogical line. George was born on 20 February 1830 to Azariah and Sarah Swisher Hoskins in a small log cabin, near the Little Vermilion River in Vermilion County, Illinois. When George was small the Indians were still friendly in the area and occasionally visited the Hoskins and the other cabins in the neighborhood. In 1833 his parents moved farther north in Vermilion County and settled on a track of land that is now in Blount Township. It is in this area that George grew to man hood, married, raised a family, owned considerable land (some he broke from virgin prairie sod) and died at an advanced age. George was educated in a one room log school house with slab benches and a huge fireplace. He lived in and grew up in a pioneer home where his mother spun flax and wool for clothing, cooked over a wood fire in a fireplace while the men worked the fields, split the rails and raised the live stock. George received enough education in his early years to conduct his lifetime business, to be a factor in the local school and church and dabble in politics in his later years. On 2 April 1854 George married Mary Ellen Gritton who was born on 29 January 1831 in Parke County, Indiana. Her parents were Amos and Elizabeth Hold Gritton, both of Mercer County, Kentucky. After their married they immediately settled on a farm in Ross Township in Vermilion County, Illinois. Their first house was also a small log cabin with a breakfast table and chairs and crude home made furniture. A little latter they were able to build a small house of more conventional design on their farm. As time went by George W. Hoskins grew in prosperity and eventually owned 340 acres of good prairie land. In 1867 his father, Azariah sold his farm to George and he and Sarah moved to Stearns County, Minnesota where they homesteaded 160 acres of land. After George purchased his father’s farm he moved his family to that location which was then located on Section #7 in Newell Township, Vermilion County, Illinois. George and Mary Ellen had nine children, three of whom died young and the other six grew to adulthood and had families of their own. On 14 January 1915 George died and was buried in Johnson Cemetery in Blount Township, Vermilion County, Illinois. His wife, Mary Ellen Gritton Hoskins died on 14 October 1915 and was buried beside her husband George. | Hoskins, George Washington (I1008)
