Magoffin Co., KY Historical Society - Todd Preston Column 5/1/97: "Ruth (Hale) Howard has made an important find in her course of gathering information on the Cooper family for the up-coming memorial for John Cooper, the Revolutionary soldier. Her visit to a kinsman in Johnson County yielded a box of very old pictures, many of them tin-types, plus a picture of Celia Prater when she was about 5 years old. Celia was born in 1858 and married David Cooper, son of John Cooper. We will copy these and try to get them identified."
