I am sorry I have taken so long to get back to you. I do have names of Abigail Coppock's parents and some earlier ancestors. The information is just what I have gotten from Rootsweb, Ancestry, and Quaker Roots. I have no family records of my own. According to what I have, Abigail was b 28 Dec 1805 in Greene Co., TN. Her father was Aaron F. Coppock, born 20 Sep 1762 in Cecil, MD and d 22 Feb 1837 in Miami, OH. He married Margaret Tucker who was b 4 Apr 1770 in Washington, TN. I have copied some documentation from [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) . He put the info on Rootsweb: >From the minutes of New Hope Monthly Meeting of the Quaker church in Greene Co., TN: 31 Dec 1796 received on certificate from Bush River MM of Newberry Co., SC. Certificate was issued on 29 Oct 1796. On 9 Feb 1797 Aaron's marriage to Margaret Tucker was recorded. 26 Aug 1803 Aaron was chosen as overseer of church; 18 Jun 1808 was made a Minister. 17 Nov 1817 Aaron and family granted certificate to Newberry MM in Blount Co., TN. Aaron's father was John Coppock b 18 Sep 1736 in Cecil, MD His mother was Abigail Skillern b ~ 1740 in Cecil, MD. I didn't know when or where Abigail and Nathan were married until you gave me that info. I knew that they moved to OH and had some of their children there. Thanks.

In case anyone here has ties to this family, I'm ecstatic to report that a descendant of the following Gilbert/Coppock line is being DNA tested. I'd not heard the rumor the descendant mentions below, but his DNA will certainly tell if he is a true Gilbert male descending from the Caleb/Jonathan Gilbert line of Newberry Co. or not. 1 Thomas Gilbert Born April 15,1793 South Carolina (probably Newberry Co. no proof) Died August 12,1869 Miami Co. Ohio. (Rumored to have been illegitimate or orphaned. Settled in Miami Co. Ohio in 1811.) + Edna Coppock ...2. John Coppock Gilbert Born April 23,1825 Miami Co. Ohio Died April 24,1883 Mercer Co. Ohio Jane Gilbert http:///www.janegilbert.org/gilbertdna/results.htm

I did not find it on Amazon.com but you can contact the author by email. This was part of her doctorate from Earlham. Here is the website of her church. http://www.preble-eldorado-universalist.org/minister.html There is an email address on this page. We met at the Quaker Conference at Wilmington two years ago. She was one of the speakers. The book is absolutely insightful. It gives such a sense of how our ancestors lived even if a person does not have family in it, but being Quaker, eventually I am sure eventually everyone finds a link to their family somehow. It is full of Stubbs. Newton is mentioned on 13 pages Mordecai Moore is on 6 pages. Vivian

Thanks, so much, Vivian! I am now very interested in the book. Can you give information about how to buy a copy? Mordecai Moore is a fairly unusual name. I have found new information just since the 2008 Bush River Reunion (much credit goes to Harriet) that I am following up on. It is possible that my Sarah McKinsey, wife of George McKinsey, of Newberry County had maiden name Moore rather than Thomas. And it is quite possible that her father was Mordecai Moore. The Mordecai Moore below is not the same man.....he is much too young....but with that name, he is a likely candidate to be a grandson.....And Newton Stubbs is VERY likely to be a member of the Stubbs family that I look at a little bit as my Catherine Elliott who married Nehemiah McKinsey in Lebanon Ohio in 1816 had a brother, Abner who married Hannah Stubbs. This family moved from Wrightsboro, Ga to Prebble County in the mass exodus of the Quaker families out of the south and into Ohio and Indiana in the first decade of the 1800's. I find Abner living among the Stubbs family in Prebble County until 1840 when he is found in the census to be in Henry County, Indiana. And it looks likely that Levi Hawkins below might possibly have been a son or grandson of > 4 Benjamin Hawkins b: 19 May 1747 PA d: 18 Jun 1815 Butler > Co., OH > ................. +Martha Hollingsworth b: Craven Co., SC m: > 10 Oct 1771 Craven Co., SC d: Abt. 1797 > ................... 5 Thomas Hawkins b: 20 Aug 1772 > ................... 5 Isaac Hawkins b: 1774 > ................... 5 Willaim Hawkins b: 1775 > ................... 5 Eli Hawkins b: 1777 > ................... 5 Joseph Hawkins b: 1780 > ................... 5 Amos Hawkins b: 1782 > ................... 5 Levi Hawkins b: 10 Jan 1785 Union Co., > SC d: 25 Jul 1834 Tippecanoe Co., IN > ....................... +Mary Evans b: 08 Dec 1792 Bush River > MM, SC m: 08 Sep 1809 Butler Co., OH d: 21 Feb 1827 Preble Co., OH > ........................ 6 Hanna Hawkins b: 01 May 1810 > ............................ +Jesse Patty m: Bef. 1826 this fromPhil's website: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hawkinsdnaproject/tree_g-1.html#Group-04 Thanks so much for sharing!

I just have to post this. Hope it makes you giggle, it is so quaint. Joseph Maddox is 72 years old in 1884 and evidently loved to travel. He was attending the Quarterly meeting and made this journal entry. He had just arrived at Indianapolis. "Stopped at the California House to see about my teeth that I left there when I returned from the West some two months ago. The landlord denied ever seeing tghem and appeared not willing to give any satisfaction about them. Learning that the hotel was not a place of any credit, I found there was little or nothing that could be done towards obtaining them." Evidently nothing slowed this man down. Vivian

This is on the Cooks. Page 5 Talking about the founding of Elk Monthly Meeting "For the rest of that winter (1805) and into the spring, West Elkton Friends met on Thursdays and Sundays for worship, usually at Eli Cook's farm about 2 1/2 Miles southwest of the village of West Elkton." Page 20 Example of unusual and curious Minutes "Late in 1814 'Elenor Cook produced an offering to this meeting condemning the burning of her father's will that was read and after a time of consideration and with the consent of the men's meeting it was accepted." Author's note: Surely, in the meeting her "offering" was read not the will. My note: Love to know more about this. Page 63 This is occurring during the Hicksite split " Orthodox: 8th Month 1830 The subject of the Separatists breaking into this house and yard coming weightly before this meeting resulted in appointing Azariah Denny, Jesse Kenworthy, Nathan Cook, Mordecai Moore, Newton Stubbs, John Hixson and William Kenworthy to endeavour as far as is consistent with the truth to keep this house and lot in our possession and attend here at the time of their holding their meetings here and produce a narrative of what they many find and what has already occurred to the next meeting. These are from the "Diary of Joseph Maddock" part of the book Page 279 " On the Seventh Day [Saturday} 13th (1832), Isaac Cook, who was with me,(this is a trip to Indiana), concluded to go on to his brother's at Rockwell and accordingly left. I expected to meet him in a few days. On the third day {Tuesday} 16th rode on for Rockville a distance of about 40 miles. Arrived late in the evening at Eli Cook's. Met a very kind reception, he being one I had spent much of my time in early days in school on through farming and various other ways. He goes on to visit Levi Hawkins (already sent that story) On the Seventh Day {Saturday] morning 27th, I thought I would have to go home alone as Isaac had not arrived yet. After the moring had passed, Isaac came and we concluded to go on for home." Page 291 1857 "On the Fifthe Day afternoon, Brother Samuel and wife took us in his wagon to Uncle James and Aunt Eleanor Cook's, about six miles, in Clark county (Eastern Indiana). They had been living here some two or three years and had greatly settled on land they bought in the woods. There were little improvements on it, and it seemed far from being a comfortable home as they once had in Ohio. Yet they appeared pretty well satisfied and glad to see us as well as we them. We spent the night very agreeably with them. On Sixth Day, we parted with our aged relatives and felt for their lonely situation, and it may be that last farwell with some of us here on earth." Page 381 1883 Joseph Maddox in 72 years of age "On the sixth Day, 15th, Samuel (Maddox, his brother) and family with myself went to Obadiah Cook's about 2 miles south of Salem. Stayed all night with them. Very interesting people; they manifested much kindness to me. He lived on his late father's, Nathan Cook's farm, were I saw the old clock that His father Eli Cook owned at Elk and who died there many years ago. It was brought by him from South Carolina in the first settlement of Preble Count, Ohio. It showed the changes of the moon and was a curiosity and came from Germany, perhaps more than a hundred years ago. Page 382-383 "First Day, 24th, Samuel took me over to J.Cook;'s on Big Cedar about 5 miles to the Bible school at west grove. An indulged meeting place, about 60 in attendance. Afterwards attended the Meeting in the Grove, about double attended the Meeting that were in the school. They seem to exercise in song yet it was a pretty good Meeting. Took dinner at Payton Cook's who married in the Bailes family. Interesting young people. Returned to Samuel's in the evening. 390 "Quarterly Meeting in 9th Month, attendance about as usual by friend from Salem; very large on First Day. Thomas Jay of West Branch a;nd Eli Cook and Dillon H William of West Grove, very acceptably with us on First Day evening."

Hope, I am a Hawkins researcher, but not of this Quaker line. However, I can tell you that the administrator of the Hawkins surname DNA project does descend from a Hawkins line that was first in PA and then in SC and then in Ohio. His name is Phil Hawkins. His website is http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hawkinsdnaproject/ Click on family pages and then go down to group #4. You will find many people associated with Prebble County, Ohio in his charts. And scrolling down to group #14 will give you the decendents of .1 Peter Hawkins b: 1745 VA d: 1801 Newberry, SC ...... +Prudance Thomas b: 1753 VA m: Abt. 1769 d: SC The ones that I see there seem to have stayed more in the south....such as TN.

If it helps any, here's a webpage I found on Thomas Lightfoot who was supposedly a friend of William the Quaker: http://www.carsonjohnson.com/chapter32-lightfoot.htm His son Michael and Michael's wife Mary were members of the New Garden Monthly Meeting in Chester County, PA where William Edmundson and family (including Caleb) lived. When Caleb married Esther Underhill at the Nottingham MM in Maryland, Michael and Mary Lightfoot were present. None of this proves anything, of course, but I believe the relationship between the Edmundsons and Lightfoots in Ireland is relatively well established somewhere too. There was at least one intermarriage which you can see on the above website. Jane On Tue, Aug 19, 2008 at 7:30 AM, Judith F.

Judy and all, I spent a lot of time at Swarthmore one day digging into what was known and not known about the William Edmundson who settled in London Grove, PA and was supposedly the grandson of William the Quaker. Based on whatI remember (and have somewhere), much of the basis for the belief that these two Williams are one and same is based on the association of both with the Lightfoot family who also settled in that area of Pennsylvania. These two families were apparently quite intertwined in both Ireland and here. I suspect the connection is no different than many of the connections we have to make when we're not fortunate enough have Quaker certificates showing the movement of people from place to place...we look for families migrating together with a common starting point and ending point.
