Tom, My apoliges on the date of death misprint of your GGG Grandfather and my GGG Uncle Alston Cooper. 1829 is incorrect as you know. Alston died in 1858 in Tupelo, Mississippi according to some of the Massey descendants. Also, there is a misprint concerning the date of death of Amos Cooper, Alstons brother. It was not 1839. Amos had to have died around 1859. The incorrect dates came from Family Tree Maker Vol 8 #3590. This volume was put out by the wife of one of my first cousin's prior to further research and really needs to be updated. Danny Cooper Byrd
