Looking for help in locating where ROBERT STOUT and wife SUSAN STAMPER-STOUT might be buried.
Robert Stout born: 10 November 1860 or 1862 Missouri
died: 22 June 1922 (I'm told Johnson Co. Iowa)
Married: 01 January 1882 (I do not know where, date supplied by a side cousin) *a record/place would be most helpful

Susan Stamper-Stout born: 06 September 1861 Virginia
died: 27 October 1950 (conflicting accounts of whether it was in Grundy Center, Iowa OR Ft. Dodge, Iowa)
Family first hand knowledge of Susan Stamper-Stout living in Morrison, Grundy County, Iowa *Had a son? or a brother? that is said to have lived nearby in Dike Town, Grundy County, Iowa named "Bert"
Susan lived with her maiden/spinster daughter, Grace Stout in Morrison.
A son, Edward J. Stout married a woman named Elda COOLEY..the Cooley family has in fact been found in Grundy County cemeteries and it would have made sense for at least Susan Stamper-Stout to have been buried there as well, but there is a possibility that Susan was visiting another child when she passed and maybe she was actually buried in another county? No clue on where Robert Stout was buried.
I have had NO luck in obtaining an obituary, marriage record, death/cemetery records for the couple (Robert Stout & Susan Stamper-Stout) I am no longer a regular member of ancestry, so dont have access to some of their documentation. ANY HELP would be most welcome!

On the COOLEY side: I need help in locating the best possible area to research in Ireland. John W. Cooley was the aforementioned Elda Cooley's father. HIS father, John B. Cooley is said to have come from County Down in Ireland...also had rumors of Limmerick. No luck as yet on surname searches for either area. Anyone have any "free" source ideas? again, no luck in finding ship passenger records under various corruptions/spelling of surname...a shove in the right direction would be appreciated.
THANKS!!! Stacey
