Dear Researchers of Greenup County, Kentucky, My research has pointed to a possible link between two counties in South Carolina [York and Laurens] and Greenup County, Kentucky [as well as Scioto County, Ohio]. The surnames involved are COOPER and WILLIAMS. James WILLIAMS of Laurens County, South Carolina wrote his will in 1816, and in the document mentioned that Reubin and Charles COOPER had married two of his daughters. The names Reuben COOPER and Charles COOPER have appeared in the records of Scioto and Lawrence Counties, Ohio and Greenup County, Kentucky. But what increased the likelihood of a connection between SC and OH/KY was Herod COOPER, who lived in Scioto County, Ohio in the 1830's and whose name appeared [only] in South Carolina records, as well. If you have discovered any migrations of families from South Carolina to Greenup County, Kentucky, please contact me, so we can discuss this further. Thank you for your recommendations. Randal W.
