Is anyone familiar with a booklet entitled "A Brief History of the Cooper (Couper) Family" ? I do not know who edited it, or published it. It is said to cover 1725 through 1924. Conrad Dennis

Hello Donna, I'm really sorry, but the Mary Ann COOPER I spoke about is not in my direct line of ancestor's. I only have her christening record from St James Piccadilly in London, which provided me with her birth date (05/24/1832) and other information. Since you have the birth date of your Mary Ann, and it doesn't leave room for your Mary Ann to be an offspring of my Mary Ann, we are not likely looking at the same family of COOPER's, unless, of course, they are cousins. I do not have any information on any siblings of William (Mary Ann's father), nor the emigration information on anyone other than Mary Ann's brother, Harry COOPER (my gg-grandfather).

No connection there....sorry to say...all my Coopers were from England Thanks anyway. mae kathleen

My oldest known Cooper ancestor is Valentine Cooper b. abt. 1745. He married a Mary ? and raised his family in Hardy co. Va, now WVA. His will is on the Hardy co. genweb page and was proven there in 1835. There were other Coopers of German descent living in Hampshire co. of which Hardy was once a part of, but so far no one can link these families together. A cousin saw Valentine's will and states that his name looked like Kieffer or Keffer definitely not Cooper so we believe he was of German descent. The Valentine Kuefer from Lancaster co Pa. b. 1745 to Vincens Kuefer seems to fit with the timeframe. This Valentine had as his baptismal sponsor a Valentine and Barbara Kuefer, so I believe Vincens could be the older Valentine's brother. Several other Kuefers are listed in these baptismal and marriage records from Lancaster co. including the Leonard and wife Margaret who had a daughter Barbara in 1733. Does anyone have any knowledge of these Kuefers? I also have another question. The Leonard Kuefer with child of Barbara, could this be the Leonard Cooper that fathered a son named Leonard Jr. who ended up in Hampshire co. VA? I believe this could be the Leonard that married a Sarah Brill . Could this be an entirely different Leonard? Anyone know anything about this? If this is the same Leonard and he had ties with the Kuefers from Lancaster co. Pa. and my Valentine is related to them, then finally the connection can be made. It is a lot of speculation and conjecture, can anyone support any of this? Thanks for your help.

She was born about 1879 in Sidon, AR (White Co.) Cordelia and I are descended from a line that goes back to Allyss Elizabeth Benson and John Coggin of Davidson CO, NC. I notice the name Benson in your line. The Cooper's and these two families were in the Davidson Co. area. My Elizabeth Coggin is their granddaughter. She was born in about 1813, married John Cooper and moved west to KY. John died in KY in 1854, and Elizabeth went on to AR. >> Kay, Thank you for your response. I don't see the connection either, but it catches my interest due to the names. My Benson Cooper was in Spartanburg SC with his family prior to migrating to AR. Sometimes, a female ancestors maiden name will be used as a given name for a son. I wonder if there could be a connection somewhere? Benson was born about 1813 in SC. His daughter Cordelia was born in 1833 in SC. The other children are Julia E, Dillard, John C W, Emilita and Benson H, all younger than Cordelia. Thanks. Georgia
