Surnames: Roper Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kgDBAEB/760 Message Board Post: Hi, I'm looking for any info on a Berry Roper who was living in Bibb county, Georgia in 1850. He bought land in Itawamba county, Mississippi but I don't see any records of him moving to Itawamba. The record clearly shows the last name as Roper. The first name appears as Brry, Berry, or Birry depending on how you read the writing. Thanks! Jonathan
