I am looking for any descendants of Joel ROPER (c1768 - 1848), yeoman farmer of Chideock, Dorset, England. Joel ROPER was baptized in Chideock on November 13th., 1768. On March 25th., 1805, in Chideock St. Giles church, he married Sarah Roper FARWELL (1786 - 1850). I have a lot of details of the ancestors of Joel ROPER and am now looking for his descendants. Joel and Sarah farmed in Chideock and had issue: 1. Sarah ROPER, born c1815; enumerated with her parents in Chideock in the 1841 census; 2. Mary ROPER (1818 - 1838); 3. James Gear ROPER (1822 - 1843); 4. John ROPER, baptized in Chideock on November 1st., 1825; John 15 enumerated with his parents in Chideock in the 1841 census. Joel, Sarah, Mary and James ROPER are remembered in inscriptions on their tomb in Chideock churchyard. Peter, from Toronto, Canada, born in Salisbury, Wilts.
