Pat Salis!! Well I'll be. I thought no one would ever ask about any Ropers. Which Roper are you looking for. I have in my tree my g-g-g-g-grandfather one John Thompson Roper, who was a Methodist Minister from South Carolina. He was born in NC in 1810?, and settled in SC, then moved to AL , dying in Chilton County. His grave in located there. It is quite interesting this name Martha-it is probably recurring. My g-g-grandmother was Martha Roper, who was the daughter of one Caroline-who was the daughter/relative of said J.T. Roper. Let me know if this means anything to you.
