My GGgrandmother was Elizabeth COOPER b. 15 Sep 1820 SC.......I do
not have any idea who Elizabeth's parents were?? She married Robert F.
LIVINGSTON b. ca1824 KY, in Greene Co.IN 4 Sep 1844. Elizabeth and Robert
had 6 children. But Elizabeth and Robert both died 1861 and 1863
respectfully. Their children were farmed out to others, none being a COOPER
family.
I have not been able to connect her to any of the many COOPER
families that settled in Monroe, Owen or Greene Co's in IN......the area in
which she lived Beech Creek Twp. was located near the area where these three
counties connected. From census records, I believe it possible that she
might have lived prior to her marriage with relatives, but not her parents??
Only I do not have any real proof of this.
I believe that there may be a connection to the Isaac COOPER family
that lived in Greene Co., but so far I have not found any concrete proof of
that connection. I believe that she might have been a daughter or a neice of
his.....his wife's name was Acenthia and Elizabeth named one of her daughters
that name also.
If you have COOPER ancestors from SC [or elsewhere] that ended up in
Greene Co, Monroe or Owen Co's in IN.......do you have a female that might
have fit her age in that family on the 1840 census??
