    • This marriage date is a county formation record date error. It is well documented that John and his brother were living in Boonville Township after the War of 1812. Cooper County did not become a county until 1818 and was formed from Howard Couty which came into existence in 1816. It is apparent that this marriage record somehow remained with the parent county.

      But then again John could have travelled back to St Charles County, Missouri Territory to marry his first cousin. In which case the date and location would be correct.

  • Notes 
    • There is a note in the Cooper County Probate Court records that note a John Yarnall who died 24 Mar 1856 and his wife who died 03 Feb 1856. It then goes on to note that he left an unpaid bill for two coffins which he had ordered prior to his death. There is only one couple that fits this bill.
