Jimmie Lloyd Cooper 1926–1980

Result: NULL — see Ivan L. Cooper. What is left is a complete-county Cooper list for Harvey Co., Kansas and Alameda Co., California, carried as a todo: there.

Result: 10 Coopers. No widow identified. Two leads, NOT attributed to him: (1) Cora K. Cooper, 23-25 Jul 1957, Guardian Angel section (memorial 306926934, no family panel); the California Birth Index gives her mother's maiden name as KIRBY, Los Angeles. CBI Cooper births with mother Kirby, 1945-1975: Cora K (23 Jul 1957, LA), Gregory A (17 May 1960, male, LA), Matthew M (8 Jul 1962, male, LA), and an unnamed male 31 Oct 1957, San Diego. (2) Ronald Patrick Cooper, 1932-1978, the same cemetery, stone 'BELOVED HUSBAND AND FATHER' (memorial 71882662) - the same inscription as Jimmie's, so the Kirby children may be Ronald's, not his. No Cooper x Kirby marriage found (Ancestry all collections, California 1945-1965; California Marriage Index 1949-1959 - 0).

Result: Memorial 31650971 Donald William Cooper, 17 Jan 1956 - 6 Sep 1977, Calvary Catholic Cemetery, Citrus Heights; family panel: parent Sonya 'Sonnie' Rosas Cooper (1937-2013, memorial 157732599). SSACI: b. Oakland, no parents named. Obituary Collection (AI-extracted, Sacramento Bee/Legacy): father DONALD KRAMER COOPER. So the four Cooper/Rosas births of 1956-1961 are very probably the children of Donald Kramer Cooper and Sonya Rosas - NOT Jimmie's. The Rosas lead is closed as not him; no file made for that family.

Result: NULL - no death notice found.

Result: NULL (unrelated Jimmie Coopers - a 1930s Broadway producer, Orangeburg SC).

Result: INDEX ONLY: Jimmie L Cooper, male, b. 9 Jan 1926, d. 22 Aug 1980; enlistment branch Army, enlisted 7 Feb 1945, discharged 29 Nov 1946. No spouse or dependant named.

Result: SSACI: 'Jim Lloyd Cooper [Jim Cooper]', b. 9 Jan 1926 Newton, Kansas, d. Aug 1980, father Ivan Cooper, mother Marietta Ball; notes 'Jan 1942: Name Listed As Jim Lloyd Cooper; 04 Jan 1988: Name Listed As Jim Cooper' - no spouse or claimant named. Oakland Tribune: 'James Lloyd Cooper, 27, 2375 Fruitvale Avenue' in a draft-board induction list - NOT this man (he was 15).

Result: INDEX ONLY: Jimmie L Cooper, b. 1926 Kansas, residence San Francisco; enlisted 7 Feb 1945, San Francisco, service no. 39430386, private; 'Single, without dependents'; 4 years of high school; civil occupation semiskilled mechanics and repairmen, motor vehicles. So unmarried in Feb 1945.

Result: INDEX ONLY, as summarised in the query. Every record in its Suggested panel is either already held or now a todo - and that panel is why this file has eight records rather than one.

Result: GZD6-CYH 'Jimmie Lloyd Cooper' 1926-1980 (d. Downey, Los Angeles Co.), parents Ivan Lloyd Cooper GZD6-DSF (1903-1981) and Marietta Darline Reynolds Ball GZD6-8FD: NO spouse and NO children attached. Ancestry all-collections (Jimmie L Cooper, b. 1926 +/-1, d. 1980) also gave no marriage row - CA death index, Find a Grave, BIRLS, SSDI and WWII enlistment only.

Result: No death notice found under that form of the name.

Result: No marriage for him. Rosas: only unrelated couples (Texas 1966+, Nevada, Argentina). San Francisco: 'Jimmie C Cooper' is a 1976 birth (father not him); 'Jas L Cooper x Blanche B Miller' is 2 Mar 1929 on the index image (3:1:33SQ-G5DW-3Z3, viewed, not filed); 'James L Cooper x Betty J Rivers' is 1983, b. 1951. Null.

Result: No Jimmie/James Cooper of the right age in San Francisco or Alameda on page 1, and no Cecilia 'Rosia/Rosas'. Null so far.

Result: No match for him (Jimmie D. b. 1935, Jimmie C. b. 1946 and others are different men). The 1950 census [D.776] has him in his mother's household; FamilySearch indexes his marital status there as Divorced (not confirmed on the image), which would mean a marriage before 1950.

Result: NUMIDENT [F.342]; 1940 San Francisco [D.770]; California Death Index 22 Aug 1980, Los Angeles (index only).

Result: Jimmie Lloyd Cooper, b. Newton, d. 22 Aug 1980 Downey, Los Angeles Co. No spouse or children were read. Lead only.

Result: Memorial 195309196, Resurrection Cemetery, Montebello -> [G.604]; its Ancestry links led to the 1944 draft card [B.122].

Result: No death notice found.

Result: 21 results: the records already filed (draft card [B.122], death index, SSACI) and member trees. One tree (Cooper-Patterson; lead only) gives a spouse 'Cecilia Rosia'. FamilySearch also indexes a WWII Army enlistment, 7 Feb 1945, San Francisco (index only, not opened).

Result: No Cecilia record. The California Birth Index has four Cooper births with mother's maiden name ROSAS - Donald W (17 Jan 1956, Alameda), Elizabet A (18 Nov 1957, Alameda), Cynthia A (1 Feb 1959, San Francisco), Margaret E (19 Apr 1961, Alameda). The index names no father; whether these are Jimmie's children is NOT established - a lead only.

Result: No 1980 notice. The 10 archive hits run 1932-1984 (Riverside, San Diego, Pasadena, Long Beach Press-Telegram 18 Jan 1983 x2, Oakland, Houston, Providence); none opened.
