*****UPDATED BUT UNVERIFIED INFO rec’d in August 2019 from a Find A Grave contributor, suggesting burial location is Weatherford Cemetery, as follows:
“I have a copy of 1950 notes that were taken from Bessie Taul Conkwright's manuscript. I do not know the person responsible for these 1950 notes. I know the location of the farm mentioned in these notes. It is on highway #49 east of Bradfordsville, KY. It is on a hill about 1/4 mile past Travis Creek. A Coppage decendent, Walter Edwin Overstreet, last owned the farm but he passed the ownership to his daughter. Information from the notes read: "Travis Coppage's land was about 5 miles from present Bradfordsville on the Hustonville Pike. His log house stood there in 1925, having been moved from its original site. The land was owned in 1925 by Prentice Weatherford, whose wife was the great-great-granddaughter of Travis Coppage. Travis and his wife are buried on the farm, but there are no tombstones. The oldest marked grave is that of their son, Fielding. This cemetery is known as the Weatherford Cemetery ”. (Per Info submitted by “Jeanette Wilson” in Aug 2019). (Note- ***No verifiable source citation given or known to exist on burial location other than as suggested above, per info contributor refers to from notes written in 1950, indicating possible burial on land once owned by descendants of the Coppedge/ Coppage family).
