    3. WHICH COOPER DIED CIRCA 1860s that was married to NICY and lived in AL? Hi, I am trying to locate information on this family that settled in Alabama circa 1850s. Thanks for any help in advance. Please feel free to forward to anyone you think may be related. * URIAH COOPER born abt 1794 in NC was in Carroll County GA in 1830 with a spouse and 2 boys and 2 girls in household. He moved to Talladega Co. AL by the 1850 census where he was listed with wife: Nicy children: Wiley, America, Christopher, Leviann, Elizabeth, Susan and Uriah Jr. In the 1860 AL, Talladega : Uriah 61 NC, Nicey 51 GA, Elizabeth, Levyann, Susan & Christopher, all kids born in ALA. Now before the 1870 one of his sons or brothers died (probably in Civil War). This son or brother was also marrried to a NICY. This is based on the fact that Uriah's Nicy was born 1807-1809 and would be 50 to 60 yrs old when "some" of these kids were born. Note the jump in children's birth dates from 1848 to 1860 and the appearance of 2 sets of twins. So, this other woman Nicy E. Cooper and her children are living with Uriah and Nicy in the 1870 Talladega census: 1870 AL, Talladega: [very hard to read] Uriah 1794, Nicey b.1807, Nicey E. b.1837, Zarow?Sara? 1848, Ruthanne 1860, *J.N.* b.1862, Evelena 1867, William R 1867, Charles 1869, Sara A 1869. *J.N. Cooper born 1862 is my great-grandfather. In the 1910 Chilton County census J.N. (Jasper Newton) is listed b.1862 with his wife and family including my grandmother Florence Cornelia Cooper but the good thing is that his mother NICY COOPER is in the household age 74 making her born 1836 AL. They are living in Talladega Co. on "McGowan's Ferry Rd." My great grandfather was married to Elizabeth PASCHALL whose mother was Margaret Elizabeth McGOWAN. ***Someone out there may think they know which male Cooper may have died leaving a wife Nicy. I would be greatful for ANY leads. Again, please feel free to forward to others or email me personally. Donna Cuzze dcuzze@earthlink.net
