I recently visited the North Carolina State Archives where I had the attached records copied. I hope they will be of interest to Cooper List readers. Robert W. Cooper was the son of James Cooper (b. October 9, 1806; d. August 15, 1872), and his wife Elizabeth Maxwell (born abt. 1802; d. December 10, 1878). Dr. R.W. Cooper was the grandson of Adam Cooper ( b, February 1760 in Oxford, Chester County, Pennsylvania; d. April 27, 1830 in Fairview, Buncombe County, North Carolina) , a revolutionary soldier from Buncombe County, North Carolina. The records are entitled, "Some Experiences of Dr. R. W. Cooper in the Confederate Army." Dr. Cooper was my great, great uncle. Margie Clayton Klein
