DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with John by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with John:
There are land records on the books in Franklin County, Virginia, related to the settling of John Cooper's estate. These records are dated 1839. According to these records, three of John's sons, Edmund, Thomas Jack, and Lewis, were each partial owner's of their deceased father's property. In this record, brother Lewis pays $100 to Thomas Jack, and his wife, Nancy Cornelius, who are living in Hendricks County, Indiana, for their interest in John Cooper's property. Lewis also pays $100, to be divided between the children of Edmund Cooper, and his wife Catherine Mason, all of whom were living in Hendricks County, as Edmund had died in 1835. There is another land record, in Franklin County, Virginia, which was signed by Edmund, his father, John, and John's father, Arthur, all three. This Cooper family was not German, although Catherine Mason, Edmund's wife, was. Edmund was not a child, nor a relative, of John Cooper and Cristina Crider, of Frederick County.
Just trying to get a conversation started, with regard to this family. I am fairly new to Wikitree, and am unsure where to begin in getting some possible corrections made to this family's relationships.
