(7) Ritchie County WV Deaths 1941-1955, Wes Cochran, 2515 10th Ave, Parkersburg, WV 26101 (Dec 1998), Identified as Edna 
Cooper Nutter, d. May 22 1948, age 74y10m6d, b. Gilmer Co, dau of Charles Cooper & Mary Jane Hall.  This information 
puts her birth date at Jul 16 1873.   We originally had birth date as Jul 16 1874, per Marilyn Davis Jones.  But 
obituary in May 1948 gave age as 63, without stating a birth date.  If she was 63 when she died, that would put birth in 
1884.  But then she would have been only 11 when she married in 1895.  There is still some uncertainty on 
this.
