Some children of Calvin and Serena White Coffey left NC in the late 1800's and moved into TX and OK. Henry Milton Coffey was one of those.
Henry, along with his wife Margaret Lucinda Pennell and five children left Catawba Co. between the middle of 1886 and the middle of 1888 and moved into St. Jo, Montague Co., TX. From there the family moved into OK, finally settling in Buffalo Twp. in Beckham Co. Many of Henry's children and grand-children are buried in the Buffalo cemetery at Sayre.
Except for the following, I have identified most of the Coffeys buried in that cemetery, but need help in identifying the remaining. If you can help, please contact me.

James Francis & Hilah Pendleton Reid Coffey
Connie Coffey Dorsey was making a visit to the Stonewall Jackson Memorial Cemetery in Lexington, VA when she found these headstones. Knowing that I collect headstone photos for the Edward Coffey Project, she send these and a couple of others a few days ago.
James Francis Coffey was a son of Walton Wilmuth and Lula Elizabeth McCormick Coffey. I know of only one other child of in that family: Ruth E., born c1921.
Going backwards, Walton descends from Edward through: William and Martha Jane Davis Coffey; William Montebello and Cynthia T. Wood Coffey; William W and Sarah Jane Coffey Coffey. Sarah descends from Edward via Reuben G. and Nancy Giles Coffey. Reuben G. descends from Edward through Edmond Stewart and Nancy Barnett Coffey
These stones mark the graves of James Francis' grandparents and are also found in the Stonewall Jackson Memorial Cemetery.
