I've just found this page online from The Cooley Genealogy about Mildred,
attached...
> Many of you know about the archive of Mildred Cooley Tallant's papers that
> Dennis Young put together:
>
> http://www.eskimo.com/~day/cooley/docs/
>
> Among them are two letters from Lura Coolley Hamil, one of which I have a
> transcription (by Mary Cooley):

>
> Mildred was a much better genealogist than Hamil. It's fair that I write a
> paragraph about her in the section that I'm doing on Hamil. But I don't
> know much. This is her descent:

> John Cooley (1730s-1811)
> Daniel Cooley (1765-1826) m Mildred Ball m2 Elizabeth Grundy
> James Alvin Cooley (1795-1835 MO) m Frances Miller
> Miller Wisdom Cooley (1822-1902) m Elizabeth C Hill
> Henry Miller Cooley (1848-1923) and Florence Howland
> Mildred Nettie Cooley (1878-1958) m1 Sylvanus Edgar Alderman m2 Edward
> Charles Tallant
>
> The index to California death records says she was born in Oregon on 23
> Nov 1878 and died in Santa Barbara on 14 July 1958.
>
> Does anyone have a photo of her? Did she have children? She had a nephew
> named Reginald W Forbush Cooley (1910-1981) who also died in Santa Barbara
> per the SSDI, but I've never found anything on him.
