Hi Danny...This message brings up some questions for me, in the line of Coopers. I have a Sampson Cooper born in Ripon , Yorkshire England in 1592. He had sons, Sampson, William (who died very young) and Jonathan. Sampson was born april 30, 1592, he died in the colonies in 1658, leaving his wife and one son, Jonathan in England. His underage son, Samuel, was with him when he died. In his will he leaves property in England to his wife and son Jonathan. At the time of his death, his son Jonathan was "lately in the occupation of Alderman Warwicke", meaning he was a Commissioner or Councilman in the County of Warwick. He must have been at least 18/21 to hold this position. In his will, Sampson requests that his son Samuel be apprenticed to a Mr Cocke, a SilverSmith in London. Samuel later is in residence in Yorktown Virginia (1691)with his wife Elizabeth Isles, daughter of Thomas Isles. I have followed this Samuel Cooper down to the present day, and our Coopers have taken the DNA test. Samuel had a son Isles, who had son John. This John had several sons, three who had decendants that took the DNA test and all match... The big question is this: We have three groups of Coopers who match our DNA, that Could have come from the decendants of Sampson's brother Jonathan....I would like very much to tie these lines together. Do you know if any of these Coopers you mentioned have taken the DNA test??? A possible connection could be with the William who came to the Americas with his son Jonathan in 1699. ( William perhaps being a son of the Jonathan,a brother to Samuel???) Age wise this seem likely... Anyone have any more info to tie this together?? Later...Joyce ----- Original Message ----- From: <Dbyrd000@aol.com> To: <cooper@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, April 16, 2007 9:46 PM Subject: Re: [COOPER] The enigmatic Jonathan Cooper, Pennsylvania > > In a message dated 4/16/2007 10:32:59 AM Eastern Daylight Time, rdh@epix.net > writes: > > I'm searching for any information concerning Jonathan Cooper, born in > Bucks County, PA, moved to Berwick, Columbia County, PA cir. 1797-1800. > > > > Hi Russell, > > Your Jonathan Cooper could be descended from the family of Jonathan Cooper > born 11 Jan 1675 in Richmond, near Leyburn, Yorkshire England and died 12 > February 1769 in Byberry P.P., Abington, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

I'm trying to break the wall I've hit. I'm looking for any info for my GR GR GR Grandfather, John Cooper b: 1835 in NY. The info I have says he and wife Mary Morgan were in Brockport, Monroe County, NY for the 1880 Census( not verified yet) but my Coopers are found in the Zanesville, Muskingham County and Roseville in Perry County, Ohio area after that. My John Cooper married Mary Morgan also b: 1835 but in Ohio. Their children were: 1. Endora Cooper b: 1850 in South Zanesville, Muskingham County, Ohio 2. John Frederick Cooper b: 1 JUN 1854 in South Zanesville, Muskingham County, Ohio 3. Rosella Cooper b: BET AUG 1854 AND 1856 in South Zanesville, Muskingham County, Ohio 4. Martha A. Cooper b: NOV 1858 in South Zanesville, Muskingham County, Ohio 5. Fanny Cooper b: 1860 in South Zanesville, Muskingham County, Ohio. We also have a Moore(Mary Eliza or Elizabeth, gr gr grandmother) connection in JUL 1878, an Allard (Linnie Adella, gr grandmother)connection in 1904 and an Allton (Bessie, grandmother) connection in 1926. Any one having a John Cooper in the Zanesvile,Ohio area during that time frame please contact dbickert@adelphia.net Donna Cooper Bickert

Hi Russell, Your Jonathan Cooper could be descended from the family of Jonathan Cooper born 11 Jan 1675 in Richmond, near Leyburn, Yorkshire England and died 12 February 1769 in Byberry P.P., Abington, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. He immigrated to America with his father William Cooper and step mother Thomasine Porter in 1699 along with William Penn on his last return trip to the Colonies. They were Quakers and belonged to the Byberry Meeting Place in Bucks County which is still there today along with the old graveyard. William Cooper was buried there in 1709. I believe Jonathan had at least two brothers and a sister that immigrated also. I haven't worked this line in several years and would have to dig out my notes. Jonathan had children named Hannah, Jerimiah, Jonathan, Phebe, Jacob and William. William is my maiden line and moved to Union County, South Carolina after the death of his father Jonathan in 1769 who was my sixth great grandfather.

I'm searching for any information concerning Jonathan Cooper, born in Bucks County, PA, moved to Berwick, Columbia County, PA cir. 1797-1800. The only hard information I have of him is his marriage to Rachel Wasley on 5 July, 1786 in Upper Makefield, Bucks County, PA, two deeds issued in 1797 for land in Berwick, sold by Evan Owen and a tombstone inscription from Pine Grove Cemetery, Berwick, PA listing Jonathan Cooper and Rachel Wasley as parents of John Cooper. Also, there is a possibility of a second marriage to Elizabeth Doan in Berwick, PA. Any leads, information or suggestions greatly appreciated! Russell

Yes, Alva Cooper had children, Ezekial, Bemus/Beamus, Phoebe and Bitsy/Betsy, (actually was Elizabeth A. Cooper). However, the New York Federal census of 1850 lists Alva's age as 49.

Hi, If you have a Cooper ( male) that would do a DNA test, you might find out a lot more information.

I'm trying to find the parents of Alva Cooper. According to the 1850 National Census of Allegany County, New York he was born in North Carolina in 1801. Family history says that he was a foreman on the building of the Erie Canal. He has several grandchildren and ggrandchildren named William. Maybe his father was named William? I would appreciate any help on this. His wife's name is listed as Sarah Graves. I believe this was a second marriage. Again, family history has his wife's name as Mary Otto. I would appreciate any help on this. This family is one of my "brick walls". His daughter, Elizabeth (Betsy) Cooper moved to Indiana and married Benjamin Franklin Bridges. They are my ggrandparents.

Donna, I have a George B Cooper who was in Pulaski Co KY in 1812. He is my brick wall. Yours is the first George B I have heard of. He bought land that ajoined land owned by Margaret I have allway assumed Margaret was his mother. He was born Dec 14, 1782 in either VA or Penn each is listed on different census.
