Thank you, Margaret. Tyrrell is one of the counties I worked on most recently. Since John Cooper married Sarah Harris, daughter of North Carolina couple Thomas and Martha Harris, my approach has been to check counties that have both Coopers and Harrises. (John and Sarah married after their families went to Indiana.) ...I hope that makes sense.

Lots and lots with the same names as Cooper's in Alabama, Louisiana. My grandfather had a brother, Webster, who moved from NC to Louisiana where he was a dentist. I've been working on Cooper's that are in the late 1700's to early 1800's in North Carolina so the details of where Webster lived in LA aren't fresh but I do have other information. All the Cooper's in the two counties in NC that I mentioned, they all inter-married so, not only do you have first names repeated but lots of times, the same. Ugh ! All those counties in the Eastern part of NC along the Pamlico and Albemarle Sounds, have a ton of Cooper's if anyone is looking in North Carolina. Margaret **************Start the year off right.
