from The Sun-Enterprise paper- Monmouth , Oregon---In the 1800's there were
two large Cooper families settling this area. The first ones to arrive were
the Lewis and Mary C. Lindsay family. He was born in Shelby, Gallatin County,
Kentucky. He and Mary ( who was called Polly ) were married in Fayette,
Kentucky. In 1852 they were living near Sheridan , Missouri when they left for
Oregon. Their first winter was spent in Marion County Oregon.--In 1853 they
moved to Polk County where they purchased 320 acres west of Independence. That
area is now known as " Cooper's Hollow ". Lewis Cooper died in 1876 on the
family farm. HIs first wife ( and the mother of his children ) died in 1853.
The children were; James Lindsay Cooper who married Hester Ann Moxley; Harbin
M. Cooper who married Ann Jane Stuart ( Stewart ); Julia Ann Cooper who
married Walter J. Matney; Artemissa Cooper who married Jesse R. Jennings; John
Robert Cooper who married Lavilla Williams; and Martha Jane Cooper who married
William Bailey Singleton. Lewis L. Cooper married Christina Jan Keifer, Sept.
1st, 1853. -- In 1874 John R. Cooper moved to Independence setting up a brick
manufacturing plant. Many of the bricks in downtown Independence buildings
came fom his brickyard. In 1882 he planted hops on part of his farm, which was
located across the river in Marion County.--Other area families who are
related to the Lewis Cooper Family by marriage are McVay; Roundtree; Mulkey;
Moon; Hubbard; Phillip; and Shirely; Many members of this family moved to the
Pullman area of Washington in the 1870's.---I wish to thank Arlie Holt for
sending me this information---Dick Cooper</SPAN><BR class="">
