Descendants of Samuel Cooper of Decatur County, Georgia
Believed to be a photograph of the
oldest son of Samuel Cooper, John J. with his wife Parmelia.
This page has been prepared to show some of the many descendants of Samuel Cooper and wife Sarah Rebecca (Justice) of Decatur Co., GA. Samuel is thought to have been born in NC. Would like any information about the ancestors of Samuel and Sarah. Samuel was listed in the 1830 Richland County, SC census and was living next door to his father-in-law, David Justice. He moved his family as well as the Justice family to Decatur Co., GA in about 1831 where he lived until his death in 1864.
