John "Jack" Coggburn (1859-1910)
"John and Eliza emmigrated to Idaho about 1882. They went first to Round Valley in Valley County and later over the mountains near Cougar Mountain and settled then in the Ola area.. They brought with them one of the first sewing machines into Round Valley." - Judy Coggburn
Jack Coggburn homesteaded approximately two miles north of Ola, in Sections 12 and 13, Twp. 10 North, Range 1 East, B.M., near where Sucker Creek enters Squaw Creek on the west and Kennedy Creek enters on the east. Also homesteading in the Upper Squaw Creek area were his sister and her husband, William Cramer, and his wife Liza's brother, William Boston. All three families were from Taney County, in southwest Missouri.
