Jim Maze officiated and interment was made at the No. 8 cemetery with the Moss Funeral Home in charge of arrangements. Mrs. Cooper died suddenly Monday morning at her home after a two months; illness from malaria. She is survived by her husband, three daughters, Mrs. Lottie Newberry, Grace and Lorine Cooper, and five sons, Ryan, Leonard, Elmer, Paul and Clarence Cooper. The Republican - Caruthersville, Missouri - Thursday, September 17, 1936 Martha Anna Mary "Mattie" Massie was 21 years old when she went by train to Washington State to stay with her sister, who was having her first child. She stayed four months. Then she took the train to Mountain View, Arkansas, where she met her future husband, Thomas Cooper, on December 25, 1906. They married the next day. They had corresponded for three years, but had never met. Thomas' brother, Marion, was married to Mattie's half sister, Sadie Massie. Thomas had a homestead in a small community of Shilow, Arkansas (Cleburn County), where they lived for several years. Visiting Texas occasionally, Mattie and Tom lived most of their married life in White County, Arkansas, farming and moving most every year. She took the children to Texas to visit her mother on several occasions, picking cotton while Tom stayed in Arkansas to gather their crop. In the late fall of 1929, Mattie and part of their children went to Holland, Missouri, to pick cotton for R.E.L. Smith; and went back each fall thereafter until 1934, when they moved there. They were making a share crop for Mr. Smith when Mattie died on September 6, 1936. Most of Mattie and Tom's children moved to Michigan in 1937. Tom went back to Arkansas and lived until about three years before his death. Then he went to South Haven, Michigan, and lived with his children until he died on October 1, 1955.
