Mrs. Wigley of Sand Mountain

Mrs. Wigley, of Sand Mountain, Alabama. 

Georgia: The Dade County Sentinel has some references to a Mrs. Wigley, who lived on Sand Mountain and died in 1895. She had a son named Thomas Cumming, who probably lived near Trenton, Dade County, Georgia. 

C.W. soldier's grave near Mrs. Wigley's on Sand Mountain. Mrs. Wigley's home is mentioned as a place on Sand Mountain [Alabama], six miles west of Trenton (Dade, Georgia). The article is an old 1891 fundraising effort to raise money to erect a tombstone over the grave of a Confederate soldier, Charley Henson, whose grave lies near the home of Mrs. Wigley, on Sand Mountain, 'six miles west of here' (that is, west of Trenton, Dade, Georgia).

[Source]: Mrs. Wigley (mention), 'A Lone Grave,' /State of Dade News/  (Trenton, Dade, Georgia) 1891-1901, 29 May 1891, page 3 (digital image 3), Georgia Historic Newspapers, Digital Library of Georgia (Gallileo).

Death of Mrs. Wigley, 1895
[Source]: Mention of Mrs. Wigley's death at her home on Sand Mountain, in 'Brevities,' State of Dade News; it says she was the mother of Thomas Cumming. (Trenton, Dade, Georgia) 1891-1901, Friday, 10 May 1895, page 3 (digital image 3), Georgia Historic Newspapers, Digital Library of Georgia (Gallileo); accessed 27 Feb. 2020.

I was unable to identify the people. Since the surnames don't match, it could mean there is a step-relationship between mother and son, or it could be the mother was a Mrs. Cumming, who later remarried. (These are just two possibilities). In old sources, they'll even leave off "in-law," so she could even be Thomas's mother-in-law instead of his mother. 

All we really know is that Mrs. Wigley lived on Sand Mountain, lived near a Confederate soldier's grave, and died herself in 1895.

Isaac and Mattie Jane (Wigley) Cooper (II)

Isaac and Mattie (Wigley) Cooper

Here are some more views of the old family photo of Isaac Cooper and his wife, Mattie Jane Emaline Wigley Cooper, of Long Island, Jackson County, Alabama. I believe these images were scanned straight from my negatives by ScanCafe. Previously, I uploaded copies which had been scanned from my printed photos. There is a notable difference in the color. These (from the negatives) have much better color and clarity. I've also included a copy of the photo as it actually was, with the couple together. That's the best shot of it that I have. I was able to get better focus on each face by taking shots of half the photo at a time.

Isaac Cooper and Mattie Jane Emaline Wigley (I)

Isaac and Mattie Jane (Wigley) Cooper

Isaac Cooper married Mattie Jane Emaline Wigley on 9 November 1902 in Trenton, Dade County, Georgia.

Isaac, born 29 March 1879 in Alabama, was the seventh son of Peter and Malinda (Sizemore) Cooper, who married on 28 August 1864 in Dekalb County, Alabama. Mattie, born 14 September 1886, was the daughter of James Marion and Mary E. (Bryant) Wigley, who married on 23 December 1880, in Dade County, Georgia.

The Coopers settled near their people in Long Island, Jackson County, Alabama. Isaac and Mattie had one stillborn son (later named Isaac, Jr.); and three daughters, Rosie Elizabeth Cooper, born 15 May 1906; Pearl Ellen Cooper, born 7 February 1908; and Sally Bell Cooper, born 16 July 1910. Mattie died on 18 June 1911 in Jackson County, Alabama, when her daughter, Sally, was just a baby. Mattie had never been well since the baby was born ~ she had a hole in her bladder. Isaac was a farmer. One day, while he was gone, Mattie found that there was going to be bad weather. She hurried out to try to get the crops in. This destroyed her health, and shortly after that, she died. Mattie is buried at the old cemetery in Island Creek Cove, Jackson County, Alabama.

Isaac remarried, first to Clarancy Cleo Colvin; and, after she died, to Estelle Higdon. He had six children by each of his other wives: sixteen children in all.

Isaac Cooper lived on the bluff in Long Island, Alabama. Some of his people, and the Wigleys, lived down in the cove. Later, he lived in Bridgeport (or the area came to be called Bridgeport). Cleo's half-brother, Mark ("Bean") lived with him for many years. Later in life, Isaac moved in with his daughter, Sally (Cooper) Bryant, in Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia. Finally, he moved into a nursing home. Isaac died in Collinsville, Dekalb County, Alabama, on 18 May 1977. He is buried at Sequatchie Valley Memorial Cemetery, Jasper, Marion County, Tennessee.

The photo of Isaac and Mattie (above) is a double portrait. However, I could not take it out of the frame, and could not get both faces into focus at once; therefore, I photographed each face separately and put the two images together. The original photograph belonged to Sally (Cooper) Bryant.

My other image file was scanned by ScanCafe, possibly straight from my negative. The color and clarity is a little better in the newly uploaded shots:

I've tried to extract records verbatim, but have had to refer back to my old notes in some cases. Also, my extract of Isaac's first marriage is from a typed, certified copy, backed up by my old notes from when I extracted it from the marriage book. Back then, my extracts were not all verbatim. DKP's extract style, not copy/paste.

Also searched Georgia death index, in case our Jackson County Wigleys died in Trenton or Rossville area (Catoosa, Dade, Walker County).

Pulled from Georgia Death Index:

John C. Cooper: d. 8 Feb 1926, Walker Co., GA

M.J.P. Cooper: d. 10 Dec 1961, Chatham Co., GA

Marie E. Cooper: d. 15 Mar 1925, Walker Co., GA (age unknown)

[Too many Coopers to pull. Focused only on those who had names similar to our Wigleys who married Coopers, and/or who died in North Georgia.]

J.F. Wigley, Sr.: d. 15 Aug 1957, W M age 68, Cobb Co., GA.

J.W. Wigley: d. 29 Jan 1957, W M age 89, Baldwin Co., GA; last resided Cobb. Co.

James M. Wigley: d. 8 Mar 1957, W M age 72, Hall Co., GA;

Mrs. J.F. Wigley, d. 20 May 1956, age 65, Ware Co., GA; last resided Appling Co.

Joseph Whidby, d. 7 May 1936, Hall Co., GA

(There were several Whisby and Whidby names, leading me to believe that this is prob. a separate family instead of a mix-up w/Wigley).

Interestingly, I found:

Dora Colvin: d. 4 July 1967, W F, age 76, Muscogee Co.

Ellis K. Colvin: d. 22 Feb 1967, W M, age 17, Grady Co.

[I only pulled these last two Colvins because their names were so similar to my known Colvins--and it made me think these are traditional names in the Colvin family.]

======================================
Our Line:

Judy Wigley Cooper: d.7 June 1926, Jackson Co., Ala. (spouse of Gaines Newton Cooper)

Mary Blanset (alternate spellings: Blansett, Blancit, Blanchet) d. 27 Oct 1936 Chattanooga, Hamilton, Tenn.

Frances Marion Wigley -- died: 27 Aug 1957 Bridgeport, Jackson Co., Ala.

Sarah Cooper Wigley (spouse of above) died 30 Nov 1966 (place unknown)

Lee Alexander Wigley died 10 Dec 1967 Rossville, Walker Co., Ga.

"Shug" or Juliana F. Wigley Cooper (a.k.a. Francis, June, Caroline) died about 4 December 1959 Jasper, Marion Co., Tenn.

Deaths: Selected Cooper, Bryant, Wigley, Colvin

These birth and death dates reflect two particular families (main lineages). These dates come from different sources, such as tombstones and lists, and may be unproven. Some are proven by death certificate. This is just a partial, short list of my people, used at the time to search for death records.
