Cocanougher Cemetery in Kentucky.
I responded to a comment in my previous post of Mary Cokonougher's Bible about Nancy Silvertooth Cokonougher (sic). Here is an old newspaper clipping that tells more about Nancy and the cemetery in Washington County, Kentucky, in which she is buried. There is no date on the clipping.
I have heard since childhood that there was a native American "Indian" named Nancy Silvertooth somewhere way back in the family tree. This is that person. She was the wife of a Jacob Cokonougher (sic), but there were many Jacobs in the family tree, so if one wants to claim her as a direct line descendant, then they need to be sure that they have the right Jacob.
