R Cooper

1st tier PA candidate:

​

  • Robert Cooper, Greensburg and North Huntingdon, Westmoreland Co., PA​​

​1796 - 1801 deeds, cabinet maker, joiner, carpenter in Greensburg, Westmoreland Co., PA​

1805 and 1806 deeds, carpenter in Killanning, PA is assumed to be the same craftsman. This assessment is based on 1) as each has a wife, Jane, 2) the lot #229 bought and sold in 1805 and 1806 is within the town Killanning being laid out with records being recorded in Westmoreland Co., and 3) a court case from 1805 records that Robert Cooper was late of Westmoreland Co.

The History of Greensburg records that Robert Cooper was a master carpenter in 1799. In addition, he was a light Dragoon in 1812 and removed to North Huntingdon after the war. He died there in 1827.

​2nd tier PA candidate:

​

  • Robert Cooper, Philadelphia, PA 1825, 1828, carpenter.
