Hi Betty,   I am from Cooper's in Union County SC but they extend up to Pennsylvania from there. Also as I understand it William and family arrived in Pennsylvania in 1699, so I do not think they are the same. Even in Pennsylvania region and New Jarsey area there were 3 separate Cooper names in that region. I have also heard in SC an Ashley-Cooper line. Maybe Ashley-Cooper genealogy would be the line to look into.   here is a link to the three lines of coopers in PA and NJ. Well, you never know. I am not certain to when other two arrived so they may also be a possibility.   http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~paxson/balderston/Cooper.html     Robert Cooper   ________________________________ From: "PSI4E@aol.com" <PSI4E@aol.com> To: sc-bushriverquakers@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, March 18, 2012 7:42 PM Subject: Re: [SC-BUSHRIVERQUAKERS] Coopers-Union SC-Pagette's Creek- I am sorry that I forgot to add Mary Cooper was born in 1690 In a message dated 3/18/2012 10:40:56 P.M.
