Hi listers, up to now I only read your mails to the list, but now I have a query myself. I'm searching my distant american relatives, descendends of Herbert W. Cooper. He was the son of a ? Cooper and his wife Elise, born Leo (in Halle/Germany). It is said by another relative, that he lived in the states of New York and California (or Florida?) , was a director of the Coca Cola Company and died in the fiftys. That's all I know. Is there anyone, who can give me an useful advice? It would be grately appreciated. Kind regards Ulrike Leo (Minden/Germany)
Ulrike, I don't know if this will help, but you might try going to ancestry.com where all the files are free until the 31st of July. If this man died as late as the 1950s, there is a chance that there is a Social Security file on him, and it will show up with a search on ancestry.com. I found several the other night when I was trying to help a cousin locate grandparents. There is a link with each record for a form letter to write for further info. Hope this will be helpful.
