Hello List.... Is anybody researching Roper families? I have Irene Smith, daughter of Wilson Smith and Mary MacGregor (d/o Gregor MacGregor and Mary Nicholson (d/o Peter Nicholson) and in 1930 she married John William Roper, s/o John W. Roper of Ingonish and Mary Rideout. This information through the Marriage Register. Lots of Ropers around Ingonish and I have the death certificates for John W. Roper,( s/o Hugh Roper and Elizabeth Carrey) and one for Hugh Roper, (son of John Roper and Eliza Roberts) who seems to be the father of John W. according to family lists in the census. Trouble is I cannot connect my relative's husband John William Roper with the namesake and father Hugh Roper. If anybody can clarify these Ropers a little for me, it would be appreciated. Thanks. Jane in Soggy Ottawa!
