    Explanation: James M. Cooper was the father of Benjamin Franklin Cooper of Sumner County TN. Virgil Anderson was his son in law, married to Ben's sister Alice. I don't know where Graball is but I had assumed that James was living with his daughter and son-in-law when he died at 81 years of age. James wife passed away in 1915. Her name was Adaline Templeton. I haven't been able to find either gravesite, yet.
