I am looking for any information on John Freeland Cofer. He was born January 31 1868 in Sullivan Illinois. He married Ida Belle Bowles on Jan 15, 1893 in Emden Illinois. John and Ida moved to Canada after their marriage. They had 14 children. They moved to the area of LaPorte Indiana, somewhere between the 5th and 7th child. John Cofer is buried in LaPorte Indiana.

Hi Listers,
I found a military paper in my grandfathers things and wanted to share it
with the Cofer family.
It is a paper showing the Army Commendation Ribbon Award for:
Staff Sergeant Samuel B Cofer, Corps of the Military Police, US Army. 1
August 1946 to 30 June 1947, Address: 521 5th Street SE, Washington, DC
If you would like a scanned copy of this document please e-mail me at
