They are not mentioned in Ira's obit. One ancestry tree has them as Westernhouses, so perhaps they took Ira's surname and kept it even though he died less than a year after his marriage to Mary. ------------------------------------------------ Funeral of Ira Coppersmith Funeral services over the remains of the late Ira Coppersmith, who died at his home on Clear Creek, November 20th, 1907, was held from Lone Elm school house Saturday morning November 23, at eleven o'clock, Rev.
