COOTER 

Benjamin Franklin Cooter was born in Bean Blossom township, Monroe County , Indiana , March 13, 1846, and departed this life Jan. 27, 1928, at the age of 81 years, 10 months and 14 days.  He was the son of John and Mary Cooter, and was one of a family of ten children, eight of whom lived to an age far beyond the average.  When about sixteen years old he enlisted in Company K, of the 55th Indiana Volunteers, and because of poor health, served his country no longer than the period of his enlistment.  He was a member of the Grand Army of the Republic, and wore his button even to his grave.  On September 1, 1867 he was united in marriage to Martha Ann Myers, and enjoyed a long devoted life, sharing together its joys and sorrows, and cheerfully making the sacrifices not unusual in rearing a large family.  Soon after marriage he went to Illinois , where he made a home on a tract of land entered in the early days by his wife’s father.  It was here his family was born and reared.  He engaged in farming the greater part of his time but later dealing in live stock and grain.  In 1903 he returned to the state of his nativity and remained a resident of this county until his passing away, at his home in Bloomington .  He was at one time a Democratic member of the Board of County Commissioners, serving at the time the present courthouse was constructed.  Brother Cooter obeyed the Gospel of Christ early in life, and was active in church work during the years of his activity.  He was a member of the Church of Christ of this city.  He was a man of sterling qualities, desiring to discharge his obligations in every way.  He stood for those principles that are necessary to good citizenship, and always took a keen interest in the affairs of the community and enjoyed discussing the problems of the day.  While he spent a part of his life in Illinois , we feel that he was one of our citizens.  Besides his companion he is survived by six daughters:  Mrs. Douglas James, Toledo , Ill. ; Mrs. Guy Morrison, Detroit , Mich. ; Mrs. Harry Burton, Gosport , Ind. ; Mrs. O. J. Miller, Miss Gertrude Cooter, and Mrs. Robt. Myers, of this city; and three sons:  C. S. Cooter, Des Moines , Iowa ; O. L. Cooter, St. Paul, Minn.; and O. B. Cooter, Hearst, Ontario, Canada.  One daughter, Bessie Winifred, passed to the Great Beyond in infancy.  He also leaves one sister, Mrs. Marietta Laughlin, age 84, Gosport .  Through his long illness the Bible was his constant companion, and he often talked of his favorite passages.  It might well be said of him:  He has fought a good fight, he has finished his course, he has kept the Faith.  THE FAMILY.  Bloomington Telephone, Bloomington , IN , Tuesday, February 7, 1928, Page 6, Col. 7.  -  shared by Dennis Krebs
