• Name	Obediance "Obediah" ???  [1, 2, 3]
  Nickname	Obediah
  Birth	6 Jul 1820	Mississippi   [2, 3, 4]

  Notes	Kay Parker McCary shows her last name as CHANCE. This is supported by the Texas Death Certificate of her son, John Daniel Cooper, on which his parents are shown as Jonathan Henry Cooper and Abedia Chance. The informant was J. E. Cooper, presumably Johnnie Elisha Cooper, a grandson of Jonathan and Obediah. Other researchers, including Barbara Yancey Dore and Jim Cooper, instead list her maiden name as BRENT. She is also shown as BRENT on FindAGrave.
