Coursey was born July 12 or 13, 1898 at Topeka, Kansas.[5][7] He attended the Commercial Art School, the American Correspondence School, and the American School of Art, all in Chicago. Coursey's home was Topeka, Kansas, but he came to North Platte, Nebraska, in 1928, from Amarillo, Texas, where he was chief draftsman for Rittenberry & Carter.

Coursey is said to have designed approximately 400 public and religious buildings, including the National Guard Armory, St. Mary’s Hospital, the administration building at the airport, and the Paramount Theater, all in North Platte, and the Elks Lodge Building in Ogallala. He designed the Methodist churches in Broken Bow and Grant, the Lutheran churches in Dalton, Paxton and Roscoe, the McPherson County High School at Tryon, and the Chase County High School in Imperial.[5]

Coursey was married to Lena Keiser at Alliance, Nebraska, in 1921, and had two daughters from that union. He was a member of the First Presbyterian Church, Platte Valley Lodge 32 AF&AM, Rotary Club, American Legion, American Institute of Architects, BPOE 985, Eagles, Last Man’s Club, and a veteran of World War I.[3][4][5][16] He died at North Platte, November 18, 1956.[5]

Notes

a. This is the year of Coursey’s death; the firm was succeeded by Robert Lyle Murphy (1914-1994), Architect.

b. Coursey’s entry in Who’s Who, Reference [4], states that he “designed” the Lincoln County Courthouse, but the building is the work of George A. Berlinghof (1858-1944), Architect, 1921-1924. The interior was left unfinished in 1924, even though several offices occupied some of the space. Coursey did prepare plans for the completion and finishing of the interior in 1931. See Barbara Beving Long, "Lincoln County Courthouse" in Reference [20].

c. The date here refers to the original building, which precedes Coursey’s tenure in Nebraska. The obituary [5] may refer to additions or other work. This building was demolished in 2001.[DM]
