It may be a coincidence, but the names are similar and the time frame seems right. Do you have info on the second generation you mentioned in the message you posted on 4/15/00.

He mentions his children in order: Samuel, one shilling, grandson,Zacheus on horse colt-Daughter Mary (COOPER) Ward ninty-six acres of land, Son Thomas one shilling, two daughters Sarah (Cooper) Glascow and Elizabeth (Cooper) Heath,one negro fellow by the name of Peter, to Daughter Dolly (Cooper) Gray, one shilling, to Son Isles Cooper one shilling,daughter Sophia (Cooper) Curlin? six head of sheep and one negro boy, duaghter Frankey (Cooper) one negro wench name Jane and one box iron and heaters, son John Jr.My plantation whereon I now live and my son James fifty acres of land, to my loving wife (not named) rest of my estate during her natural life. Son Isles was named to be the guardians of his brother Thomas' daughters and he (Isles) also bought his brother Johns land in 1799. I believe this Isles married Mary Agnes Edwards (Nancy) dont quote me on that!!. What do you have on your Isles??? I can tell you what else I have on this faamily if you think its in the ball park....Joyce
