Eleanor Tyler Cookingham

This page is for my great great grandmother. It seems as though she didn't live long but left a family that seems unending. At this time there is no picture of Eleanor and a few of her children, as young men. Eleanor was born January 13, 1847 the eldest of ten children. She married William Henry Cookingham April 25, 1867. To this union there were four births but only three lived to adulthood. Their eldest son was Clair born in 1870 but he only lived till March 15, 1870. Then she and Willaim had my great grandfather, Germaine Cookingham. He was born April 14, 1871. Their next child came September 10, 1874 and he was named Raymond Tyler Cookingham. The last birth seems to have lead to Eleanor's death. Born on March 5, 1876 was Warren Cookingham. Eleanor passed away on March 27, 1876 and at that time the three boys were taken to their Tyler grandparents in Sturgis, Saint Joseph's county, Michigan.
