I am looking for info on a John COOPER that resided in Hardin Co., TN around 1820?-45. He evidently died between 1844-45. I have a copy of a title bond dated 13 August 1844 between John and Amzi Reed. Also a deed registered on 27 Jan 1845, showing transfer of the same property named in the title bond to Amzi REED. States, "Elisha PACK Administrator of the Estate of John COOPER dec'd of Hardin County and the State of Tennessee of the one part and Amzi REED of the county and State above named of the other part....." I have reason to believe that this John COOPER is my 3rd Great grandfather and the father of Jehue M COOPER, my 2nd Great grandfather. If this rings any bells with anyone, please let me know.
