Hi yes this is my Peter
Cooper. But his first son is
Alvis not Arvis. Alvis was my grgrgrandfather. His son George W. was my gr grandfather and his son James was my grandfather. George and his wife Mary
Polly Evans moved to
Harlan Co KY. That is where my dad was born. Several people have said Peter's father was Thomas
Cooper. I haven't seen any proof of it yet. I have a piece of paper a cousin sent me that was in the back of an old picture that says Peter's father was in the Rev War and was killed by his horse when he was old. I was told that story by a cousin in
Indiana who grew up around my grandfather and great grandfather George
Cooper. I can you a copy of the paper. I have a scanner. I have been working on this line a long time. Always come to a dead end. But several people are working on it now and finding different things. I have Milton Cooper's death certificate that says his mother was Clara
Ridenour. I haven't checked to get any of the other children's death certificates yet. Well nice to hear from another cousin. I used to write to Milton's grandson who lived in southern Calf about 2 hours from me. He passed away though. He was a great grandson of Peter
Coopers. Peter is my grgrgr grandfather. Milton was the youngest son so he was born way later. Well bye for now. Write back.
