This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Roper, Martin Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/kgDBAEB/3.13.1.6.2 Message Board Post: I am doing research for a direct descendant of Aaron David Roper and Mary J. Martin, the couple that you suspect are grandparents of your Verner. We have found that A. D. goes back to Lumpkin County, Georgia, and we suspect he is the son of Aaron Roper and his wife Elizabeth, who appear in the 1860 Census for Henry County, Georgia. I am sure that my client would be happy to share any data that she has with you, but I will need to contact her for verification. My e-mail address is [email protected] and my name is Lisa Schaefer.
