MARRIAGE: Cooper5

N4, H2

Somehow, Henry Cooper is connected to Robert S. Cooper. There are too many common names in the church cemetery to not be connected.

Misc:
This might be the same deed that was witnessed in 1820. In this case, the deed was presented to the County Court on 14 Sep 1819. David Hollis and Henry Cooper witnessed under oath that it was genuine and it was recorded.

Census:
Enumeration: 020111-10101, no slaves

Died:

Henry married Rebecca Hollis on 19 Jan 1794 in Rowan, North Carolina, United States. Rebecca (daughter of John Hollis and Mary) was born before 1775 in Rowan, North Carolina, United States; died in 1855 in Cannon, Tennessee, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Some sources record a second marriage for Rebecca to an Andrew Moore in Knox County, TN, but this does not make sense. The marriage isrecorded as 12 Aug 1812 in Knox Co, TN. If this were the case,Rebecca and Henry would have had to be divorced since he was still alive at that point. Likewise, she would have had to go east alone for this to happen. No mention of this was made in Elizabeth Cooper's Bible records. Also, were Rebecca to remarry, the record would have been recorded as Rebecca Cooper, not Rebecca Hollis. So, unless additional evidence comes to light, we will assume that this is another Rebecca Hollis.

CENSUS: Based on the 1790 enumeration of John Hollis, it would appear that this person occurs in that house. Likewise, in the 1800, 1820, 1830 enumerations of Henry Cooper support her position in this household, but does not explicitly list her.

Residence:
Rebecca Cooper is listed as owning 266 acres worth $2660 and 1 slave worth $600. The fact that she is in the tax list means she owns the property and not Henry, so he must no longer be living.

Residence:
Rebecca is taxed on 267 acres worth $3000 and 1 slave worth $700

Census:
Enumeration: 00101-00000001, 8 slaves, 11 people
