[List] Joseph Cooley estate

Hello, Cooley relations:
Below is my transcription of documents copied for me by volunteers at
the Liberty, Mo., Historical Archives this past summer. This begins with
a court case in 1842 when the descendants of *Joseph Cooley* (including
my 5th g-grandmother and grandfather, Elizabeth Cooley White and William
White) are suing for partition of Joseph Cooley's land in Clay County,
Mo. It's a lot to wade through, but I'm including all of the file for
the names that might be of general interest, and for whatever other
clues might be there. Included in the case file was the appraisal
inventory and later, the sale inventory following Joseph Cooley's death.
It's interesting to see that Kaziah Cooley (as her name is spelled in
these materials) has to buy back her household furniture, horses, etc.,
at the sale -- she would have been entitled to only her dower rights
(1/3 of the estate, I believe) after Joseph's death. There's a later
case that I'll transcribe when time permits that involves Nancy White
Gragg and her landmark dower rights suit -- or perhaps everyone on this
list has already seen that?
I haven't totaled this up, but Joseph sounds fairly prosperous to me,
for the times. After his death and the land partition, of course, it may
have been another story for the descendants, but those who remained in
Clay County went on to hold prominent positions in the county, I think.
It's interesting to me, particularly, because I'm originally from the
area described, although I live in South Carolina currently ... and so
many of the names remain on the land. There's a Samuel Clevenger
referenced (he was a county clerk) -- I believe he's an ancestor of the
Clevengers who even today farm the land in the Missouri River Bottoms
between Orrick (in Ray County) and Missouri City (in Ray County.) Alas,
I'm not really aware of any Cooleys remaining in the area today. Cooley
Lake was a shallow pond the last I knew, but not farmland, as someone
said. Joseph Cooley's land described in this court case abuts Cooley
Lake (section one and section two are right above one another) on the
east side of Cooley Lake, according to the 1877 Historical Atlas of Clay
County, Missouri. In 1877, the only Cooley remaining was H.M. Cooley,
with 40 acres in the middle south of section 7, Township 50, North Range
31 and 32 West -- closer to North Kansas City than to Missouri City, if
I have my bearings right (but still in Clay County.)
Another interesting point in this transcription are the final reference
to the Hardwickes in the document I numbered "13" below. I have a copy
of another case (to be transcribed, but I'm not sure when) from 1832-33
in which John M. Hardwicke alleges that Joseph Cooley sold him a tract
of land in 1824, before Joseph Cooley's death, which Kaziah/Keziah
apparently disputes.
Perhaps this court case is the reason the land was not partitioned for
the descendants until 16 years after Joseph Cooley's death. But that's
just my speculation, at this point.
Please note that in the transcription below, I've done my best to
present the material as it appears in the original documents, with the
same archaic spellings, etc. This being a copy of the original, there
are places where it's difficult to interpret. Any corrections would be
most welcome. In addition, although I have dear relatives who are
farmers, I'm not one myself ... so if I've misinterpreted the names of
various farm implements, etc., in the appraisal lists, please let me
know that, as well.
Another document that I've found recently that may be of interest to the
group, if you don't already have it, comes from the Missouri Secretary
of State's online records:

The answer of Benjamin Hayes,

formerly Hannah Cooley by their guardian William Wilson, Eveline Officer and

Franklin Cooley and Eli Cooley, pending before the Hon. Judge of the Clay
circuit court in Chancery sitting –
The answer of your respondent states that he has no personal knowledge
of the allegations or matters and doings contained in said petition,
save what appears from the affidavit of Keziah Cooley administrix of
Joseph Cooley, deceased filed in the office of the clerk of the county
court of Clay county, from which it appears that the heirs of said
Joseph Cooley living at the time of the filing of said affidavit were
eleven in number, to wit, Polly Mitchell then resident in Tennessee, and
John Cooly[cq], Elizabeth White, Hannah Wilson, Eveline Cooley,
Christopher Cooley, Cassander Cooley, Harrison Cooley, Jackson Cooley,
Franklin Cooley, Eli Cooley residing in Missouri. Said affidavit was
filed as aforesaid on the 14^th day of June AD 1826, Your respondent
further says that from the inventory of the property real and personal
of the said Joseph Cooley, filed as aforesaid on or about the same date,
it appears that the real estate of said Joseph Cooley amounted to one
hundred and eighty acres lying in the county of Clay and state of
Missouri,. The other allegations of said petition your respondent
neither admits nor denies, but calls upon the petitioners to make proof
of the same. Having fully answered in the premises[?], your respondent
