Gary and Linda had four amazing children, Ryan, Brandy, Logan and Jessica. Gary was an avid outdoorsman and rancher. He worked at the National Elk Refuge in Jackson Hole feeding the elk by horse drawn sleigh. Gary considered himself lucky by being able to work numerous guiding and outfitting jobs, which was his passion. He was awarded guide of the year in 1971. He worked for several ranches over the years and was most at home on the back of a good horse. He loved what he did and was a hard working man who never left a job undone. All who knew him could easily say he was a quiet spoken man, therefore when he did speak, everyone listened to what he had to say. More often than not it was a sarcastic remark that resulted in laughs, but he could also be very insightful and give great advice. He spent his later years being an extraordinary grandpa passing on his wisdom of fishing, hunting and work ethic to his grandkids. Gary was preceded in death by his parents, his older sister Kathleen Daniels, and sister-in-law Sandra Hedges. He is survived by his wife Linda, his brother James Hedges, son Ryan (Dawn) Hedges, daughter Brandy (Aaron) Taylor, son Logan (Kresta) Hedges, daughter Jessica Hedges, and 11 grandchildren. | Hedges, Gary Lee (I3728)

| 1884 | Genealogy of the Coffinberry Family. Compiled by Mrs. Beatrice Berman Scott, 1927 https://archive.org/details/genealogyofcoffi00scot/page/n5/mode/2up page 57-58 "Gilkisons" There is a family of Gilkisons living in Highwood, Ill., whom, I believe, are a branch of one of the two original Gilkison brothers, who were born in Scotland and came to America and settled in Virginia and Kentucky in the early days. There were two brothers who came to this country, we are descendants of one of the brothers and the family of Gilkisons living in Illinois are, perhaps, descendants of the other brother. T. Mortimer Gilkison sends in the following data: My great-grandfather was born in Scotland (am sure his name was William) and came to America as an orphan at about fifteen years of age and settled in Virginia. This, as near as I can trace, was about 1785. I am unable to tell you anything about his family except that he had one son, William, my grandfather. My grandfather went from Virginia to Kentucky when a young man and was married twice. To his first wife was horn one daughter and two sons: Malvina, Milton, Stanford L.. my father. To his second wife was born three sons and two daughters: Burgis, Albert, Rowe, Almira and Amanda. Of all the children, there is just one living. That one is Albert, whose address, I believe, is Triplett, Kentucky. My father, Sanford L. Gilkison, was born in what was at that time a part of Flemming County, later Rowen County, some time in 1833. I have lost the date. Was married on December 31, I860, to Rosana S. Hedges. To them five children were horn: Lillian, Rousseau, Frances, William and Mortimer. The last is my name. Rousseau lives at Bluestone, Kentucky, and William lives at Gatlin, Illinois. I was married August 7, 1906, to Mary Lucile Fitt. We have had three children, the oldest, Thelma, was born November 28, 1907, died December 1, 1907. The next, Joseph Ivon, was born August 15, 1909. Thomas Morti¬ mer was born December 29, 1914. There are descendants of Jonathon Gilkison (brother to James and John C. Gilkison) living in Quincy, Illinois. Janathem settled in Missouri. There is a Henery A. Gilkison belonging to our family tree who is living in Chicago. He is a descendant, I think, of James and Nancy, but cannot place him. | Gilkison, Thaddeus "Mortimer" (I391)

| 1888 | Geo. W. Cooper Dead At 11 o’clock Saturday morning Jan. 17, Geo. W. Cooper died after a long illness at his home near Shafter in Jackson township. His wife had passed away a little more than a month before. Mr. Cooper was born in Westmoreland county, Pa., February 12, 1842, and so was 71 years, 11 months and 5 days old at the time of his death. His parents came to Missouri when he was about two years old, and both his father and mother died shortly after coming to this state. He was then taken into the home of this mother’s sister, who was Mrs. Luvicey Gooch, where he grew to manhood. He was united in marriage with Mildred Gooch, only daughter of Roland and Zelila Gooch, on July 12, 1865, following his service in the Confederate armies, and to them were born seven sons and five daughters, all of whom survive their parents, and all were present during his last hours excepting one daughter – the eldest. George W. Cooper was an excellent citizen; indeed few men could so nearly count all their acquaintances as their friends. He was a kind and loving father and husband and was a neighbor who could be relied upon for sympathy and help in time of need. His standing in the community where he had lived so long was evidenced by the great congregation which attended his funeral at Mt. Live Monday afternoon. The services were conducted by Rev. J.W. Drinkard of Laredo, from who we have gathered most of the above facts concerning the deceased. The Bulletin, Linneus, Missouri. Thursday, 22 January 1914. | Cooper, George William (I1887)
