On the list or what?

I am rather new to the mailing list, so I thought I would let everyone know about my Coopers. I am looking for information on Jesse Cooper and his wife Dorcas (surname unknown). He suddenly appears from nowhere into Hamilton County, Ohio in 1820. I know this because his son William (my gggrandfather) was born in Hamilton County in 1820 . Jessie had other children too: Samuel, Jaret, Elin (sic) and Lizzie. William married Lucinda Harris (parents:William and Becky Harris) in Hamilton County in 1844. They had several children: Jessie, b April 1845, Samuel, b Oct. 1846, Sarah b Jan. 1847 (that's not possible, but that's what it looks like in the bible. More likely 1848), Henry b. Dec. 1849, Laura b. Sept 1851, Elizabeth,b. May 1854, John b. March 1857, Albert b. April 1858, Jacob b. May 1860, Dora Jane b. May 1864 and Flora Belle b. Dec. 1866 (my great grandmother). Sometime between 1844 and 1862, they (Wm.'s family) moved to a farm near Milford in Clermont Cty., Ohio. Sometime after 1868 they moved to Montgomery Cty. Ohio. William was a civil war veteran. He was in the 79th OVI . I got lots of records pertaining to his military service from the National Archives but nothing to indicate anything about his father. If anyone knows anything about them I would appreciate hearing from you. Sharon Schwartz Ronyer@aol.com

Hi Danny: Thank you so much for getting back to me. Wish I could find something on him. Maybe I will get lucky one day and run across it. Thanks for your help. Sherry

I am seeking information on my GGG Grandfather Isaac Cooper, b. 1784 RI. I think his father may have been William Cooper shown on 1790 census of Newport, RI. Isaac lived in Onondaga Co, NY in l8l0. He lived in Sparta, NY l820 and l830. He lived in Loraine Co, OH 1840. He lived in St Joseph Co, MI 1850. It is believed he lived in Noble Co, IN l855. He lived in Loraine Co, OH l860 which was the last census I have found. The l850 census showed his wife named Elizabeth, born PA, about his same age. Their children were as follows: Virtue b. abt 1809 mar Charles Comstock James J b. abt 1810 mar Joanna Edmunds, 2nd Hannah Slyter Christopher Z b. abt 1811 mar Nancy Slyter George (Washington) b. abt 1813 mar Betsy Slyter Beulah b. abt 1818 Mar Dave Dunning Roswell b. abt l8l9 Mar Janett Sprague Betsy b. abt 1824 mar Ephraim Pratt I have names of the children on the above children of Isaac and Elizabeth if anyone is interested. Three sons above, James, Christopher, and George (Washington) were killed in a boiler explision on May l8, 1855 in a sawmill at Brimfield, Noble Co, IN. These three brothers were married to three sisters, daus of Samuel and Margaret (Brown) Slyter. Also killed in the same explosion was Samuel Cooper, only son of Christopher and his wife Nancy. Any informationon these families would be appreciated. Howard Cooper super@trailnet.com

Jeremiah Cooper went with a group of Quakers from East Nottingham, PA to Winchester, VA ca. early 1770's. In unknown order, he joined the Hopewell Meetinghouse on 11 Aug 1774 and ma. Rebecca Parrell, dau of Joseph Parrell and Sarah Turner, Winchester, VA. Jeremiah & Rebecca had twelve children (same as previously listed in Digest Issue #177). This listing was hand-scribed (date unk) by a Mr Wm Miller from a Bible in the possession of Mrs Kate Douglas Funk of Corydon, IN, all dates having been made in Quaker fashion, ie. " 1st day of the 1st month". Conventional dates are used here: 1. Sarah- b. 31 Oct 1775 2. Joseph- b. 10 Feb 1777 (ma. Sarah Ann Franklin 19 Aug 1804) 3. Jacob- b. 13 Jun 1779 (VA) 4. Ann- b. 26 Jul 1781 (Bywater, VA) (Twin) 5. Levi- b. " " " ( " ") ( " ) 6. Jonathan- b. 9 Jun 1783 7. Elizabeth-b. 13 Mar 1787 8. Jeremiah- b. 8 Mar 1789 (VA) 9. Rebeckah- b. 10 Apr 1791 10.Mary- b. 15 Feb 1795 (believe this to be 1793) 11.Ataline- b. 10 Sep 1795 12.Israel- b. 10 Aug 1797 Further research has shown the 1902 Historical Collections of the Joseph Habersham Chapt, Daughters of the American Revolution, Vol 1 to have contained the following query: "218. Cooper-Jeremiah Cooper emigrated from PA, near Phila, with a colony of Quakers and settled about seventeen miles from Winchester, VA, shortly before the Rev War; he there married Rebecca Perrill, who was born in 1755, a daughter of Joseph Perrill; he (Jeremiah Cooper) died in 1801. He was recruited by Col. Fauntleroy at Winchester for service in Washington's army. Can you tell me if he ever saw active service; also, if the ancestors of Rebecca Perrill (his wife) were in the war of the revolution. Jeremiah Cooper was third in descent from the Cooper, a companion of Wm Penn, who came over from England with Penn. Was not Jeremiah Cooper a son of Joseph Cooper, who was a member of the assembly at Burlington, NJ in 1727, and the friend of Benjamin Franklin, of whom Franklin makes mention in his autobiography? If you will give me this information or tell me where I may obtain it, I will very greatly appreciate the favor. Cartersville, GA B.V.C " Can anyone shed light on the above query since I can only echo it? Who was BVC? Was he ever answered? Thanks, Jim Scruggs

From the book "Thomas Cooper of Boston and his Descendants" by Frederick Tuckerman of Amherst, Mass. 1890. THOMAS COOPER, of BOSTON, and his DESCENDANTS. 1890. Of the early history of Captain Thomas Cooper, very little is positively known by the present writer. There is some ground for the belief that he was descended from the Coopers of County Gloucester, England, although family- tradition would assign him to the Coopers of Somersetshire His fatther's christian name and the date of his own birth are alike unknown. That his mother's name was Mary, however, is certain beyond a doubt, from the evidence contained in an old Bible in the possession of the family. He was born in England, probably in London, about 1660. In 1675 ha was sent to Boston, New England, by Richard Gawthorne, of London, to whom he had been apprenticed, to learn business of James Lloyd, merchant. In December, 1679, at his own request, he was relieved from serving the remaiuder of his apprenticeship. On the 6 March, 1673, he was a passenger in the " Pink Blessing " bound to New York. In 1680 he acted as attorney and agent for Mr. A. M. Daniel, who had returned to England, and sold for him his farm at Billerica. His name appears in the tax list for 1681, and some twelve years later he had become one of the largest tax-payers in Boston. In June, 1689, he signed a petition with Peter Sergeant and others. to have the " Rose " frigate restored to her commander, Captain George. On the 21 April, 1690, he set out for New York in company with William Stoughton and Samuel Sewall. (NOTE !!! both of these men were later Judges in the infamous Salem Mass. Witch Trials) On the 5 April, 1692, he paid 100 pounds to Mary Lawrence and George Munjoy, mariner, for a tract of land, a mile square, situated at Amancongan River on the north side of Casco Bay, Province of Maine. In May, 1693, he and John Pool became security to the town for Nicolas Stoughton and his family. Judge Sewall makes the following entry in his Diary, 4 Dec. 1694: Lieut. Governour [Stoughton] invites. and we go to Mr. Cooper's, where a Splendid Treat is provided, most cold meal. Councillors, Ministers, Justices there. and Col. Shrimpton, Mr. E. Hutchinson, etc. Mr. Increase Mather crav'd a Blessing; Mr. Willard returned Thanks." He was one of the projectors and founders of Brattle Street Church, Boston (by the Mathers stigmatized as the "Manifesto " Church), and, on the 10 JaL. 1698, he and John Colman granted the land for the church. On the 10 May, 1699, the Rev. Benjamin Colman was invited by the undertakers to become the minister of the new church, the letter being signed by Thomas Brattle, Benjamin Davis, John Mico, Thomas Cooper and John Colman. On the 8 December following, Thomas Cooper was admitted a member of the Brattle Street Church. On the 25 Jan. 1700, Samuel Sewall writes in his "Diary" as follows: Mr. I. Mather, Mr. Willard, Mr. C. Mather, Mr. Wadsworth, and S. S. wait on the LI Gov, at Mr. Coopers: to confer about the writings drawn up the evening before. Was some heat; but grew calmer, and after Lecture agreed to be present at the Fast which is to be observed July 3l" On the 20 March 1703, Mr. Chauncy, Mr. Cooper, John Pitts, John Bowdin, John Colman, and others, petition the Governor [Joseph Dudley] for a bankruptcy law. Thomas Cooper had the military title of Captain, and was probably an oflicer in one of the Suffolk regiments. He lived on Sudbury Street. He was one of the executors of Lieut. Governor Stoughton, and, through his marriage with Stoughton's niece, inherited all of his real estate in Boston, altthough he did not long, survive the acquisition of his large landed property. This included the famous Green Dragon Tavern and the Blue Ball estate. The Green Dragon Tavern estate was valued in 1705 at 650 pounds. It remained in the possession of the family until August, 1743, when it was sold by Rev. William Cooper to Dr. William Douglass.. Thomas Cooper died at sea, while on his way to London, in 1705. His will (No. 2934), dated 11 Jan. 1704-5, was probated 6 Aug. 1705. He lett a handsome property for those days, his estate being appraised at 8552 pounds 2s. He married in Boston, 6 March,1683, Mehitable, daughter of James and Hannah (Stoughton) Minot, of Dorchester. James Minot was the second son of George Minot, of Saffron-Walden, County Essex, England and was born there 31 Dec. 1628. His wife Hannah was a daughter of Israel Stoughton, and sister of Lieut. Gov. William Stoughton and was born in England in 1628. Mehitable Minot was born at Dorchester, and died in Boston, 23 Sept. 1738. She was thrice married, but was without issue by her last two husbands. Her second husband was Hon. Peter Sergeant, to whom she was married 19 Dec. 1706, -and who left her at his death on the 8 Feb. 1714, his famous mansion, afterwards known as the Province House. Slfe married thirdly, 12 May, 1715, Hon. Simeon Stoddard, who died 15 Oct. 1700. She and Lieut. Governor Tailer were own cousins. She was admitted to the Old South Church 28 March, 1697, but on the 4 Feb. 1700, became a communicant of Bratttle Street Church. On the 23 Jan. 1711-12, she sold to Josiah Franklin (the father of Benjamin) for 320 pounds, in good current bills of credit, the Blue Ball estate. On the 12 April, 1716, she sold her mansion house for 2300 pounds to the State for a Province house.

Yes, I am sure. Sterling was born February 12, 1827 in Raleigh, North Carolina and died March 25, 1920 at Trilla, Illinois. According to his death certificate his father's name was Benjamin Cooper. My Grandma who recently died at age 91 also said that Sterling's fathers name was Benjamin.
