Molly COOLEY

Fort Apache Cemetery
Navajo County,
Arizona

Died Oct. 1920 in Navajo County, Arizona

Molly was the daughter of Pedro, an influential Apache band chief, and wife of Corydon Eliphalet Cooney, a famous Indian Scout.

Molly and Corydon's ranch was one of the most noted stopping places in eastern Arizona and guests were unanimous in their appraisal of Molly as a tidy and gracious housewife and as a generous and notable hostess.

Molly is buried between her husband and her son, but only a small wooden cross serves as a marker.
