    1. Elijah COOPER--Newark grocer
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DZB.2ACI/2440 Message Board Post: I am seeking any info on the subject and his family. 1850 census for Newark, Licking, OH: E. [Elijah] Cooper age 53 grocer b. NH Mary age 35 b. NH Mary age 17 b. OH Martha age 15 b. OH Henry age 13 b. OH Caroline age 1/12 b. OH Rachael Davis age 20 b. Wales Next door to this family was the Jewett family, of which the head of household was also a grocer. Don't know if the families are related or not. By 1860, Elijah must have been dead, as Caroline was living as a family boarder with the family of Charles Hoover in McKean Twp. I am hoping someone can help me track down this family, as I believe the daughter Martha may be my ggg grandmother. Her name and approximate age, as well as her geographic location, make her a very possible contender. Her parentage has long been a mystery, which I hope to solve. Thanks, Laurie
