I am trying to do some Cooper research in relationship to my Gifford line.
I have a death certificate for a Louis Cooper born Feb 2 1864 died Sept 5
1954 Lewis Co Ky it list his Father as William Cooper II, and Mother
Kisare( not sure of spelling) Dodson. Louis was suppose to have been a twin
his brother Pete is the informant on the death certificate. They lived to
be almost 91 years old. Louis Cooper is the Father of Florence Rose Cooper
Gifford, born 12 Mar 1888 died 7 May 1919 and Pete is the Father of Madie
Cooper Gifford born 1893 died 14 Feb 1977, both of these women married a
William Claude Gifford, 1st wife 23 Sept 1905, 2nd wife 25 Sept 1919 in
mason Co Ky.

Do you think your William Cooper connects to my Cooper line?
