Can any one help? I recently petitioned for help from every county of PA and
have found many helpful people. I need some more help now that I know where
to look. I am looking for any information from county census or colonial
census prior to 1788. I know there was no federal census until 1790 but have
been informed there are county and colonial census. My 5 great grandfather
JOHN JACOB KOPF was born in Lancaster Co., PA December 1766. His parents are
CONRAD KOPF and MARIA MAGDALENE ?? KOPF. My 5 great grandfather has gone by
the name Jacob with several spellings of the last name which include: Kopf,
Kop, Kopp, Copp, Cop, Cup, Cupp, etc. Jacob was baptized at Cocalico
Reformed Church, Ephrata, Lancaster Co., PA, a Lutheran (German) Church. I
need look up in tax record, church records of like faith in your area,
newspaper information, marriage look ups or just any kind of information I
can get. I have been told Jacob may have had a brother or uncle called
Abraham (Aham) or one called Volentine. CONRAD is said to have been in
Chester Co., PA in 1756. I am also helping to try and connection three
separate lines of Cupp therefore I would appreciate any or all Cupp
information. Of special interest are information on Jacob or Conrad,
siblings, parents, etc. Thanks you so very much for your help. I have been
told there were Cupp's in all the counties I am sending this to.
