My Harpers arrived in Co. Monaghan, Ireland, supposedly from Scotland, some time between 1700-1731. I have records for Lowdy Harpor and his supposed children, but no proof. However, records from Robert one of his probable sons who m. Allie Moore and are my ancestors are correct from family records and later parish record entries. So we have Lowdy Harpor m. Mary Middleton in Ematris Parish, Co. Monaghan Robert Harper (b. abt 1767) m. Allie Moore, ditto Robert Harper (b. 1797) m. Nancy Moore, ditto John Harper (b. 1824) m.

Other families of Harpurs from Co. Cavan went to Australia and Canada. We are trying to connect them via the Harper Surname DNA project. Email me for details. Michael J. K. Harper

Interested in corresponding with others of this line. Some say my Charter Harper was s/o Richard, Castleton's son, but have not found proof. Charter Harper m Nancy Kidd, d/o Webb Kidd & Elizabeth White. My 2 Harper lines are from Charter's sons James Washington Harper and Henry White Harper, youngest and oldest of the children.

I have long been interest in the Harper line from Ireland - specifically, Castleton Harper - I know he came from Ireland (I don't know where) and was born in 1715. He settled in the Charlottesville, Virginia area and married Rebecca (?) who was born in 1718 (unsure where). I descend from his son Richard and his daughter Mary. If anyone has information on Castleton Harper in Ireland and any of his Irish ancestors, I'd be very interested. Thanks, Julie Boone - Portsmouth, VA

My William A. Harper was one of the sons of Alexander Harper, b. 22 Feb 1744 in Middletown, CT. Because of the duplication of given names in the various Harper families, Alexander's sons agreed that they would all take "A" for their middle name, to differentiate themselves from the other Harper descendants who were all naming their children after other relatives. So, we have first Margaret Harper (no "A") who was born 12 Jun 1772, then John A. Harper, b. 30 Mar 1774, James A. Harper, b. 6 May 1776, William A. Harper, b. 19 Jul 1779, Elizabeth A. Harper, b. 24 Feb 1784, Mary Harper, b. 24 Mar 1786, Alexander, Jr., b. 3 Sep 1788 and Robert A. Harper, b. 16 May 1791. The wife of Alexander and mother of these children was Elizabeth Bartholomew (also known as "Betsy"). Elizabeth was b. 13 Feb 1744 in Bethlehem, NJ and was the 11th of 16 children b. to John Bartholomew and Dorothy Endt. As for William A. and Sally Robinson Harper, they had 7 children (one infant daughter did not survive). Their children were Charles Harper, Malvina Harper, Henry Harper, Robert Robinson Harper, Sallie Harper and Polly Harper........but, sorry! no more William A's. If you have further questions, please let me know.......and thanks for writing.

My Harper line comes out of North Carolina. Sometime before 1820 KIZIAH HARPER was married to CHRISTOPHER SINGLETON, in Burke County. Kiziah is believed to be the daughter of JAMES VINCENT HARPER of Rutherford Co. She was born circa 1804. The abandonement of Kiziah Harper was recently published in the "North Carolina Genealogical Society Journal", Vol. XXVIII, No. 3, pg-321, Aug. 2002; "Divorces and Separations from Petitions to the N.C. General Assembly", Ransom McBride. Kiziah was granted special legal status to be single. I descend from her son, Osema Singleton. Kiziah's parents were probably James V. Harper and MARY BLANTON, the second wife of James (???) James was a son of AMBROSE HARPER. I am told that James was the only Harper householder in Burke Co. in 1820. James was married to Mary Blanton from about 1800 to 1839 when Mary died. James is mentioned in the will of his father, Ambrose Harper, from Halifax Co. N.C. Ambrose was a son of HENRY HARPER. Ambrose is mentoned in Henry's will of 1766. I am still fuzzy on much of this and have honestly been saving it for later. I would like to hear anything about these Harpers. -Mark Vernon Seattle, WA
