Ohio and a brother and Uncle that lived in Iowa. Clay County, Waterman twp., and Obrien twp.... do either of these fit in your group?? These would be the closest in age to connect to England.. I have seen Coopers and trying to connect to England... What do you think..??? It would be great if I had information to help you out and I could connect to your names.. I have made a book on my side of the family including the Coopers...Please let me know....
