Looking for death reg and place of rest for Myrtle COOPER and Meshie COOPER
« on: Monday 11 September 23 15:27 BST (UK) »
I am trying to help a fellow researcher find the death date and burial place of their relative, Myrtle COOPER (maiden name) and her partner Meshie (Meshick) COOPER.

Myrtle COOPER, born c1892 in Louisiana USA was the daughter of Henry COOPER born c1863 and Eleanora (Lora) SANDERS born c1870.

Myrtle COOPER married George BOSWELL c1891-1962 on 16 Jul 1911 in Mayfield, Graves, Kentucky.

Myrtle separated from George and went on to have a relationship with Mishie (Meshick) COOPER, born c1892 in California, USA. Myrtle and Mishie had at least the following children between the years of 1913 and 1930: Leonard, Carrie, Nelson, Spencer, James, Famie.

1910 census: Myrtle is with her parents in Henderson, Chester, Tennessee
1930 census: Myrtle is with her partner Meshie and 5 children in Tangipahoa, Tangipahoa, Louisiana
1950 census: Myrtle is with her partner Meshie in Whiteville, Hardeman, Tennessee
No other census material found.

I am unable to find a marriage for Myrtle and Meshie, neither am I able to find a death registration or final resting place for Myrtle or Meshie.

Hoping someone can help. Many thanks in advance.

Admin, please can you kindly delete this post. There is indeed a 'double' posting. Many thanks.
