"Greenville Cooper owes his nativity to Greenup County, Ky. where he was born, August 23, 1823. During his youth he attended the district schools in that vicinity and when 12 years old came to this county, where he has since remained with one exception, from 1865 to 1867, which period was passed in the territory of Montana. Mr. Cooper is also now engaged in the water service of the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad. His marriage to Miss Margaret Campbell, like himself of Kentucky nativity, was consummated in 1844, but this union was dissolved by the death of Mrs. Cooper in 1859. She left seven children, five of whom survive: Albert, James B., Martha J., Ellen and Castaria. Elizabeth and an infant are deceased. In 1862, Mr. Cooper was again married, Miss Jeannette Walker of Pattonsburg, Missouri, becoming his wife. They have seven children: Charles, John W., Samuel, Tina, Claude, Glendon, and Frank."
