Notes:

He was an ironworker, a gunsmith by trade. In early life he shipped on a whaling vessel and was wrecked on the Sandwich Islands, where his skill in ironwork saved his life. But he was guarded whenever a vessel was in port so that he could not escape for quite a length of time. He at length succeeded
in getting away and returning home. The time and place of his death are not known to his descendants.

From Hooper Genealogy:
2. Joseph (John, John, John, John, William), born at Bridgewater, Dec. 24, 1780; married at Duxbury, March 15, 181 1, Jerusha, daughter of Cornelius and Jerusha (Bryant) Ellis, born at Middleborough, April 19, 1781, died at Bridgewater,
Jan. 20, 1870.
He was an ironworker, a gunsmith by trade. In early life he shipped on a whaling vessel and was wrecked on the Sandwich Islands, where his skill in ironwork saved his life. But he was guarded whenever a vessel was in port so that he could not escape for quite a length of time. He at length succeeded in getting away and returning home. The time and place of his death are not known to his descendants.

Birth:
There is a note in the Bridgewater list of births for
"Jerusha, w. Joseph Hooper, Apr 19, 1783" that is cited from a private record group.

The Compiled Birth, Marriage, and Death transcription lists him as Job. I suspect that is a transcription error.

Census:
There are three Joseph Hoopers and a John Hooper in Bridgewater in 1830. I believe that means dad, son, uncle, and grandson.

Enumeration (Joseph Hooper 2nd): 0010001-0001001
Enumeration (John Hooper): 00001001-000000001
Enumeration (Joseph Hooper): 000010001-00001
Enumeration (Joseph Hooper Jr): 000001-100001

So, I am not certain which of these 3 is Joseph, but one I believe is.

Died:
Jerusha is listed as a head of household in the 1840 census, implying that she is widowed. By 1850, she is listed as a widow.

Joseph married Jerusha Ellis on 15 May 1811 in Duxbury, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States. Jerusha (daughter of Cornelius Ellis and Jerusha Bryant) was born on 19 Apr 1781 in Middleboro, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States; died on 20 Jan 1870 in Bridgewater, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States; was buried in Bridgewater, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States.

Seems like Joseph could well be a son of Jerusha and Joseph.

Jerusha is listed as widow by 1850.

If Jerusha is listed as an innkeeper starting at least in 1800, does that mean Cornelius has already died or is gone? Probably.

Notes:

There is a note in Scituate of Sarah Cowen, d. Israel, dec'd Jan 5 1718. This is clearly not her, but could be a previous sister. It looks like there are several generations of Israel Cowen / Cowing's, maybe with daughters Sarah in Scituate. I wonder if they might be Jewish.

Findagrave says Joseph was the son of Israel Cowen, which may be true. There is a birth record for Israel's son in 1715 in Scituate. There is a baptism record for him in 1719 and lists him as child of Hannah, widow. So, were Israel & Hannah married, and when did he die?
