Penland, who was apparently the daughter of Alexander and Isabella J. (Allison) Penland.
Penland - Cooper Cemetery, 80-1, Redstone Arsenal, Madison Co. AL, April 26, 2003 Dorothy Scott Johnson in her book CEMETERIES OF MADISON COUNTY, ALABAMA, VOL. I (1971) has a note that "... The stone of Janies Cooper used to be in this cemetery but is not there now.
It has either been destroyed or carried away. James Cooper died December 7, 1834, aged 42 years. He was the husband of Charity Cooper, who was a sister to John Allison."
[Isabella Allison married Rev. Alex Penland, and they had a daughter named that they named Charity. They also had a son that they named David, after his maternal grandfather.]
Alexander and Isabella J. Penland also apparently had a daughter named for her mother, as the fragments of the marker shown in the photos above and below indicate.
