A Missouri Death Certificate, #802, lists Denia as having been born in Missouri. Her father is listed as Henry McDowell. Not much is known of her early life. In 1900, she is widowed with a 14 year old son, Jackson. Her last name is Murphy and she's living in Springfield with Jesse Cook who will become her second husband. The couple made their home in Greene County until her death in 1928. The death certificate lists her burial (likely in an unmarked grave) in Lincoln Memorial Cemetery. It is assumed Jesse was buried next to her when he died a little over a year later.
