Jean - there have been so many emails that I am not sure exactly what YOUR info says and I would like to know. You have always been pretty much on the right track.
No credit due me. I've not taken out the time to trace my Copelands past the Civil War period. Most of my information has been gathered, and not proven, thru Herman Coplen and Bill Copeland and the Copeland surname list. I'm hearing that Herman was wrong and don't know where. Also, we need to split apart, unravel, the various Copelands that may not, necessarily, be related to each of our separate "lines". Herman's work seems clear and careful, to me. But, as I said, I've not gone out of Ohio in my research other than to be aware that the immigrants to Ohio were from North Carolina. Herman cites some small stories with his trees and, in the periods closer to now, he has some fotos in his book. That's nice - even if they're way off on another branch, from me. I hadn't planned to do any Copeland research while in SLC next week but I may try to see if they have the books that Herman used. I have a pressing need to clarify information on my German ancestors and one lost Irishman. jean bbm34 <bbm34@prodigy.net> wrote: Jean - there have been so many emails that I am not sure exactly what YOUR info says and I would like to know.
