ROPER (b 1776-80 - VA, d 18 Aug 1833 - Fleming, KY) in a new thread: "Judge William P. ROPER (b 1776-80 - VA, d 18 Aug 1833 - Fleming, KY)" http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.roper/1873/mb.ashx Many researchers continue to post fraudulent lineages purporting to connect Shadrach ROPER to various New Kent ROPERs, republishing completely discredited information. Most researchers have also invented another father for William P. ROPER to avoid recognizing William's correct genealogical information, since this also eviscerates the published fraudulent lineages involving Shadrach ROPER. I have summarized the truthful genealogical information about this important ROPER ancestor. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
