273 A Benjamin Coppock is listed as the head of household in the 1800 South Carolina Census, pg. 70 for Newberry District, South Carolina. Two males under age 10, 1 male between ages 26 and 45, 1 female between ages 16-26 and 1 slavested in this family. (C-219a, 299, 390k, 556) Benjamin Coppock and sons, Joseph and William were received on certificate from the Bush River Monthly Meeting, S. Carolina in the minutes of W. Branch Monthly Meeting, Ohio dated March 19, 1804. His wife Susannah and daughters, Jane and Elizabeth were added to these same minutes on the date of August 29, 1807. They settled 2 miles west of Ludlow Falls, Union Twp., Ohio where they raised a family of 10 children. (C-112, 1430)

274 A Big-YDNA tester who descends from this William is an exact match to our James Calhoon who died in Guilford, NC in 1795. This is the only place he fits into James & Jean's tree from an all the census records for their sons as the descendant of James. CALHOUN, William (1820 census under age 10) Big Y: FT350465 (I4929)
 
275 A Bradford High School graduate in the class of 1936, he served in the army in World War II for over 3 years starting on Apr. 27, 1942. He was employed by the U.S. Postal Service and retired after 30 years of service in 1979. CARTER, Floyd Oscar (I11967)
 
276 A Coppock researcher, a Mr. Dale, copied a newspaper article from "The Guardian" published in 1910 which implies that this John and Margaret Deane Coppock are the parents of our Aaron Coppock. "The Coppocks of Mobberley & Tarvin, Theears to have been two distinct branches of the Northenden family living at Mobberley. One branch, probably cousins of John & Margaret Dean in 1634, and they had several children baptized at Mobberley, including Bryan, the eldest, 1645 (probably called after a kinsman of Etchells), Jonathan, Mary, Aaron, & Elizabeth. " Here is how I interpret this: One branch of the Northenden Coppock family living at Mobberley were probably cousins to John and Margaret Dean who married in 1634. John and Margaret Dean had several children baptized at Mobberley, including Bryan, the eldest, 1645 (probably named after the relative named Bryan who was a kinsman of the Etchells), Jonathan, Mary, Aaron and Elizabeth. It matches in it's entirety with what I have gleaned over the years about John the Tanner and Margaret Dean's family from Cheshire records, Ann Natalelli's sortings and Gary Hawley's research. Furthermore, her letter stated: "John Coppock of Mobberley, Tanner, was buried there in 1666, and his will is at Chester. His father was named John." This also matches the parents that I've sorted out for John the Tanner. There are no time line discrepancies to prove otherwise. Aaron would have been born late, near the time of his father's death. His mother could still have been in her 40's at the time. The fact that she is young compared to her husband is supported by the fact that her mother was still living at the time John died as he names her in his will.

It should be noted that Alan Dale's transcription of this article in the Guardian implied that it's source was an 1838 letter from Margaret Holland to her cousin Abigail Holland Coppock that was published in Irvine's "History of the Hollands". I located this book entitled "The Family of Holland", but it dosn't mention anything about Aaron Coppock. Only the first paragraph of the letter is quoted in the Guardian It simply talked about her current Coppock cousins in Mobberley, but she never implied any relationship to this branch of the Coppock family or to our Aaron. Therefore, the quote above was from whomever submitted the article to the Guardian in 1910 and this remains to be found.

As for Margaret Holland of Mobberley, her Coppock cousins descended from John Coppock of Ringey, in the Parish of Bowdon who married Katherine at Mobberley on Dec. 26, 1717 and died about 1754. In other words, her Coppock cousin was likely born in the 1690s and is a full generation younger than our Aaron Coppock.

Margaret and her husband were having children every couple of years. Several of the children were not in the christening records. This included Ann, William and Magdelin. They had an "infant" born in 1648 whom we assumed died and was never named in the christening records. (C-2430) John is listed as a Tanner by trade of "Halle", also spelled Hale located in Bowden Parish according to Annie. In 1634, he is also listed of Bowden Parish when he marries Margaret Deane. (C-2247) I suspect their first couple children were born in Bowden Parish and then they moved to Moberley, where the majority of their children were born. He is listed as John, the Tanner, in both locations and the time line fits perfectly for him being one and the same person. The transcription of his will is as follows: "Will of John Coppock of Moberley, yeoman; to Wm. Coppock, my brother & unto John Coppock his son being my executors; all my lands in Mobberley; to my son Bryon Coppock; f50; my daughter Elizabeth f50, daughter Ann Coppock, f50, to Elizabeth Deane, my mother, Susanna Strettell of Manchester, Lancaster Co. widow; & to Susanna Burton daughter of the Susanna Strettell, to my son William Coppock lands if Wm. does not marry Rebecca Cowley of Ashton, Chester Co.; but if he does marry, then my brother William & his son John to pay to my son f20.40, to son Bryan Coppck, Magdelen Fletcher, Mary Cawley, Ann Coppock & Elizabeth Coppock, my daughters my wife Margarett Coppock. Proved Jan 17, 1666." He apparently submitted a will in 1660 and 1665 according to Annie Natalelli Waloszek. (This transcription is by Glenn Russhell and is his will written in 1665.) (C-1333b, 2249)

277 A coroner's report says she drowned in a pond on Mar. 3, 1696. The report was dated 8/4/1698. VESTAL, Sarah (I25)
 
278 A correspondent, Lowell Pickett, suspects that this Elizabeth is a part of the Jacobs from Anne Arundel Co, MD. (C-1300) Elizabeth's probate papers are translated here in part: George W. Tobin with Leonard Baum: Article of an agreemde and entered into this 27th (24th) day of September 1847 by and between George W. Tobin of the first part and Lenard Baum and Elizabeth Baum his wife Isaac Tobin and his wife Matilda and Wesley Tobin and his wife Barbara and Louis Fisher and his wife Eleanor, and David Tiderick and his wife Mary and James Milner and his wife Hannah and Nathaniel Tobin, Jr. of the other part. Witnessed to that the said parties of the second part doth hereby authorize and impower the said George W. Tobin to sell at public sale or otherwise to the best advantage the livestock belonging to Elizabeth Tobin, deceased and out of the proceeds thereof shall all the just debts against said decesed and the surplus if any shall be by him with household goods and other affects of the deceased be equally divided among all the heirs of said deceased. Said George W. Tobin included, for the faithful performance of the above said George W. Tobin finds himself in the final sum of ten hundred dollars. In Witness Whereof said parties have hereunto set their hands and seals. .... October 15, 1847 Received of George W.

Signed by Isaac Tobin, Wesley Tobin (his mark), Eleanor Fisher, Elizabeth Baum, Mary Tidrick, () March 27, 1847 and recorded April (6), 1847. (CL-289) JACOBS, Elizabeth (I16013)
 
279 A Daniel L. and Bowen W. John are listed as purchasing Troy Lots 102, 110-111 in 1830 in the same deed record where Powell, Mary, Sarah, Samuel and Cynthia Ann John are listed. His wife is listed as Sarah in this 1830 deed. He married anah Buckwalter in 1832. In the transcription of the 1830 and 1848 Chancery deed records - his middle initial is translated as S. His estate in 1846 was administered by David Clark and securities were covered by Anothony Whole and William Vernis? (Docket of Adm. A-1, #1933, p. 227 - C-2320) JOHN, Daniel S. (I8611)
 
280 A descendant of this Edward tested in the Martin YDNA project at https://www.familytreedna.com/public/martin/default.aspx-section=yresults . He is currently listing matched cousins of Devon, England in group 29. He is NOT related to our Martins. MARTIN, Edward (I11410)
 
281 A descendant of this James Jefferson Coats in our YDNA group at FTDNA has his closest cousin matches to descendants of Big John Coats. This ancestry fits that information but is not proven historically. COATS, James Jefferson (I1706)
 
282 A family group sheet from Duane Josephson gives another marriage for Ann Wilmot to Joseph Sperry. (CL-447d) WILMOT, Ann (I12645)
 
283 A family tree on Ancestry said that son John, b. 1630 d in 1702 in Cumberland, England. If that source can be verified then Edward is NOT the father of our John Martin.Our John Martin married a daughter of Thomas Pettus and his Indian wife. Their daughters were sought after amongst the early Jamestown men of the wealthy class in England. That is because Thomas Pettus was from a prestigious line in England and his daughters were half English. That suggests that whomever John's parentage was, it was from the wealthy class. MARTIN, Edward (I12158)
 
284 A handmade booklet on this generation of Tharps says that Mary was declared by jury as insane in 1815. This would have been the term used at the time for dementia. Son, Zadock, was named her guardian. (CL-317a) She died shortly after asn Zadock was the administrator for her estate which he filed on May 28, 1816. The estate papers administered on May 28, 1816 lists her and William's children as William, Joseph, Zedic, Isaac, Esther, Armelia Calhoon, Unica, Kezziah, and Ann. It names one grandson Jesse who was being cared for by Isaac (Zaus).

She is listed in her father's deed transaction in Sussex, Delaware in 1767 under her married name proving that she is a Ponder instead of a Harris as is oft printed. 
PONDER, Mary (I13380)
 
285 A Lavina Tharp married a James Dollar on May 29, 1816 in Franklin Co., IN. (CL-425) THARP, Levenia (I327)
 
286 A letter written by Thomas Brooks Johnson, Feb. 18, 1833 from Eddy Grove, Caldwell Co., KY when he was 18 to his Uncle and Aunt, presumably Betsey Johnson Moore of Paris, TN states "Grandfather Brooks (Thomas) died last fall, was a year ot a year ago, and Grandmother (Susannah Teague Brooks) is very low." Thomas Brooks is said to have died in 1831. According to this letter, Susannah Teague Brooks would still be living in 1833 in Eddy Grove, KY. Another old letter in descendants from this family transcribes the following old Johnson bible. "In Uncle Davi (?) old Bible I find" and she goes on to list the names of the "Children of Thomas and Susannah Brooks." Tabitha was born May the 4th (74?), Mary was born January 31st 17(?), Thomas was born May the 6th 17(?), Elijah was born Feb. 15th 1782, Jesse was born Sept 23rd, David was born Jun. 25th 1787, Mary was born Feb. 16th 1789, Elizabeth was born Oct 22 1794, Susannah was born Oct 22 1794, Rebechah was born Oct 21 98, "The dates are so moth-eaten and worn away I can not make them out." This last quote was from Mary Beard Smith Johnson to her mother-in-law, Susannah Johnson. TEAGUE, Susanna (I7879)
 
287 A likely older cousin of this family believes that she was married twice. She believes her second marriage could be to Anton Zajac by whom she had John Anthony Zajac, b. 1891 in Zborov, Slovakia, a half brother to Katarina. John Anthony's parents were Anton Zajac and Margarita Katarina Hruskovic according to research by Elizabeth Beechwood. If this is the case, John Anthony also had siblings named Joseph, Therecia and Mary that would be a half-siblings to Mary Hruskovic. Mary was born on Jan. 2, 1889. There are persons of the same last name in Zborov Parish that are likely relatives of Catharina. There is a Maria Katalyik who was a godparent to a Joannes ( )kovics on Oc. 2 1867. KOTULÁK, Catharina (I12605)
 
288 A male descendant of this line has had a YDNA test and his results would be the same as our common ancestor which is James Wright, b. 1676, husband of Mary Bowater. WRIGHT, James (I2422)
 
289 A Maria Tejrik is living with Julia Pipik's stepsons, Peter and Tedor Dudik, in house 28 in Nevike in 1869. She was a widow and born in 1804. In other words she was an elder compared to everyone else in the Dudik household and is highlyy related to Julia Tejrik. Julia Tejrik is a widow, an attendant by trade, living with the Leopold Bergida and Argentina Gostlieb family in house 37. Her stepson, Fedor, lives in house 35. PIPIK, Yulianna (I9795)
 
290 A note which I don't know how to interpret in Warren's "King John" says Fl 1217. (C-433) FITZ ROY, Richard (I352)
 
291 A possible sister to Ann Currie could be Alice Currie who married Leroy Griffin, 18 Jul 1764, Lancaster, VA. (CL-260) MCCOMBE, Elizabeth "Ann" (I16060)
 
292 A possible wife to Madog Puleston is Angharad.. Ferch David of Goronwg, Wales. (See CD-102) PULESTON, Madog (I12415)
 
293 A Richard Coppock appeared in a suit for recovery of Lands in Allricham, Northenden, co. Cheshire, England in 1546 in the Plea Rolls. That would estimate his birth date as previous to 1526, and a possible contemporary of Geoffery Coppoco of Cheshire. Richard Coppock was born of Morley, Wilmslow Par., Cheshire, ENG bef 1545. This source of Elizabeth Harris's information on Richard Coppocke and John Coppock down to Bartholomew Coppock comes from fairly recent parish research by Corinne Hanna Diller, on the Coate/Coppock Family. It is Corrine's best guess based on parish records of Wilmslow, Cheshire, Eng. Her address is 8443 Sonneville Dr., Houston, TX 77080-3638. (C-613) It is possible, even likely, that Richard’s siblings were Hugh, William, and possibly Raphe. They are males of his age having children christened in the 1560-1570s in Wilmslow Parish, Cheshire, England. (C-204)

Annie Natalelli-Waloszek has a copy of the original and very hard to read will of Richard of Keckwicke, d 1592. He might be this same Richard who was in Northenden in 1546, though this is a guess. She transcribes it as follows: "Richard of Keckwicke 1592, wife Ellen, bros John and (rambo, cambo, cante, cance) ............ Anno Dei 1591, I Richard Coppocke of Keckwicke......(sicke of bodie but of perfecte memory, laud) and praise be to almighty god...

He was listed as a husbandman or farmer at the time of his death. It is conjecture on her part that the Richard who married Margaret is the son of the Richard who died in 1592, because the age is correct and they both were of Keckwick. (C-2250E)
 
COPPOCK, Richard * (I7744)
 
294 A transcription of James Scott's Will dated 1804 is herewith provided by Charlotte Coats Siercks: James Scott - of Turky Creek - being well stricken in years - wife Hannah Scott - grandson George Wilson - son in law: James Coate, all lande southside of Turky Creek and on the North the Hill where his house stands - referes to son and daughter "James and Elizabeth Coate, female children"...looks like he gave them a slave...witnesses: John Saltio or Salteo, Jacob McDaniel and Ebeuatus Stevens (not sure of the spelling of that first name Ebeuatus) proved in July 10th 1807; recorded May 17, 1808. (E) SCOTT, James (I5213)
 
295 A William Coppack who lived in Ringway and Hale, Cheshire Co., ENG, and left a will and inventory of his estate in 1684, is likely to be this William. If so, he was a tanner by trade. He is also likely to be the William who was of Bodenh (Bowden Parish) in 1635, had a daughter, Anne, christened on Jan 24, 1635/6 in Wilmslow Parish, Cheshire, ENG. (C-2251j) Hale is in Boden/Bowden Parish, so both William's are likely to be one and the same. COPPOCK, William (I16479)
 
296 A William Pearson from the Uwchlan Monthly Meeting in Chester Co., PA went to Bush River, SC MM to visit his family on Jul 6, 1780. Since this is the Pearson family that I know ends up in Bush River MM, I suspect that he is related to thisy. (C-2140) PEARSON, Samuel (I14509)
 
297 Aaron spells his name Aron in his will and his certificate of removal to PA, but signs his name AARON in his Quaker Marriage Record. The name Coppock comes from the place of origin for this family when the surname came into use. It wasll estate in East Cheshire and almost all early Coppock references come from near this region. The exception is a few Coppocks listed from South Lancashire in England. From medieval times forward, the name has been spelled Coboke, Coppack, Coppick, Copuck, Coppak and Coppack and Coppock. (C-963, E) Aaron was christened on January or February 6, 1666 on his original christening record and listed as the son of John. This problem with knowing the date was that the Bishop transcripts give the date as January 6, 1666. Aaron's birth date varies according to several second hand sources. The 25th day, 10th mo, 1662 date for Aaron's birth comes from an old book entitled "A Collection of Memorials Concerning divers deceased Ministers and others of the People called Quakers in Pennsylvania, New-Jersey, and Parts adjacent, from nearly the first Settlement thereof in the Year 1787." This was a Quaker obituary basically done over sixty years after his death and they could have easily had the date wrong. It had his death date wrong and his likely age wrong. (C-253b, C-703). He was born the 9th of August 1667 according to an L.D.S. ancestral file of unknown source.

The Ohio Archealogical and Historical Society Quarterly in 1921 states that his birth date was August 19, 1662 and 1683. In England at the time, babies were baptized as quickly after birth as possible, with a 3 week old baby being baptized late.... therefore, the 25th day, 10th mo, 1662 date is probably Dec. 25, 1666 instead which occurred right before his Jan. 6, 1666 christening date according to Gary Hawley's theory. (E) To quote Gary on the christening practices of England: The rules governing the baptism of infants can be found in any 1662 Book of Common Prayer. "It was the intention of the Church of England that children's baptism should be deferred no 'longer than the first or second Sunday next after their birth.' It was also the intention that children should be baptized in Church in the presence of a congregation 'when most number of people come together.' The preface to the service is very clear that private baptism was only to be used in exceptional circumstances." This pattern is even held in their church today and I therefore agree that Aaron was likely born in Dec. of 1666 instead.

In our Aaron's baptismal certificate, it clearly states he is the son of John. The problem is that there were four Johns in Mobberley at the time of an age to be his parent from my point of view. The first and most commonly published person is John married to Susan Lowe. This one has a conflict of Aaron's 1662 birth date listed in his obituary is within months of their daughter Rose. The 2nd theory is John, the son of William (brother to John and Margaret Deane Coppock). He was likely born in the 1630's. Nothing further is known on him other than the fact that he was mentioned in his Uncle John's will of 1665. A third theory is that he is John the Tanner who married Margaret Deane in 1634 and died in 1666. The fourth is that he is the grandson of John the Tanner and Margaret Deane through their son John.

I am nearly convinced at this point that Aaron's father is my third theory, that he is the son of John the Tanner and Margaret Deane for the following reasons. A Coppock researcher, Alan Dale, copied a newspaper article from "The Guardian" published in 1910 that implies that John, the Tanner and Margaret Deane Coppock are the parents of our Aaron Coppock. "The Coppocks of Mobberley and Tarvin, There appear to have been two distinct branches of the Northenden family living at Mobberley. One branch, probably cousins of John and Margaret Dean in 1634, and they had several children baptized at Mobberley, including Bryan, the eldest, 1645 (probably called after a kinsman of Etchells), Jonathan, Mary, Aaron, and Elizabeth. "

Here is how I interpret this: One branch of the Northenden Coppock family living at Mobberley were probably cousins to John and Margaret Dean who married in 1634. John and Margaret Dean had several children baptized at Mobberley, including Bry
an, the eldest, 1645 (probably named after the relative named Bryan who was a kinsman of the Etchells), Jonathan, Mary, Aaron and Elizabeth. This list matches in it's entirety with what I have gleaned over the years about John the Tanner and Margaret Dean's family from Cheshire records, Ann Natalelli's sortings and Gary Hawley's research. Furthermore, this article stated: "John Coppock of Mobberley, Tanner, was buried there in 1666, and his will is at Chester. His father was named John." This also matches the parents that I've sorted out for John the Tanner. There are no time line discrepancies to prove otherwise.

John the Tanner wrote his will and died before our Aaron was born accounting for the lack of evidence as to which John is the father of Aaron. Although they basically had a grown family when John wrote his will, Margaret could have easily been born about 1620 or slightly before, making her in her mid to late 40's when she had Aaron. This is still totally possible as a late life baby. Secondly, Aaron is a very rare Coppock name. In fact, our Aaron is the first one to have it as a name. There are only 3 Aarons christened in all the parish records for the area... this Aaron in Jan. of 1666, one in 1721 and one in 1746. This actually supports the fact that our Aaron is the son of John the Tanner and Margaret because the other two were grandsons and great grandsons of John the Tanner and would have been named after our Aaron. (C-1295, 2246, 2267)

Further circumstantial evidence that could help us ascertain who his parents are is from the closest kin column on Aaron's marriage certificate to Miriam Short. There are 2 names under the closest kin column. The first is his wife's sister, Ann and the 2nd is Lydia Carter. Lydia Carter by position on the list could easily be a relative of Aaron's. Robert Carter also attended the wedding. Robert Carter (b. 1665 in Oxford, England) married Lydia Walley in 1688. Her parents were John and Alice Walley and grandfather was John Walley who was born in Cheshire, England, the same county where Aaron was born. One thing is certain... she is a close relative of Aaron Coppock or his wife, Miriam, especially since they named their 2nd daughter after her. (E) I suspect that this relationship may one day help prove or disprove my theory that John the Tanner is the father of Aaron. (C-2430)

Aaron Coppock's first marriage to Mary (Orrell) in 1/1688 was probably outside of the Quaker church. The Orrells were next door neighbors to the Coppocks in Pownall Fee. According to an Internet site, he supposedly was married twice. His first was to a Mary in England. They had a son, Aaron, born at Mobberly, England that was buried there on Feb. 9, 1691 in the Anglican Church of England's graveyard.

He came to Pennsylvania in 1683 according to the Ohio Archealogical and Historical Society Quarterly, 1921 issue. He came in 1685 from Nottingham, England to Nottingham Co., MD according to the "LittleJohn Family History" written in 1953 by Mrs. Iris Littlejohn McKown. He had likely converted to the Quaker faith by 1695 when he was fined for failure to tithe to the Church of England. He paid the fine in corn. He apparently traveled back to England as he received a certificate of removal on the 23, 3 mo.,1701 from Pownall-fee Monthly Meeting of Friends in Cheshire, England. He traveled to Bristol England, probably in that year, to return on a boat to Pennsylvania.

He married Miriam Short in either the Upper Chichester Meeting of Friends, Delaware Co., PA, the Nottingham Monthly Meeting, or the New Garden Monthly Meeting, all in Pennsylvania as 1704, 9mo 30th day. Their marriage is recorded in all three places. This is one of the histories based upon it being recorded in the Nottingham MM of Maryland. "Maryland Quaker Records: Nottingham Monthly Meeting, Cecil County, Book F - 1808-1836" "Miriam White declared intentions of marriage the 1st time at Concord MM, PA, 11-7-1704 OS; 1tm 13-9mo (Nov) 1704; rptd married 11 10mo (Dec) 1704 OS (Note: James Trimble says "Aaron Coppock was advanced in age when he settled in E Nottingham about 1704; and died about 1728; he was a minister.

His son, John Coppock, married Margaret, daughter Jospeh Coulson, of Germantown, Philadelphia Co, PA, at W Nottingham MH, 16-1mo (Mar) 1730/1 OS; tradition says that this Joseph was a brother of Thomas Coulson, the Nottingham emigrant, and that his daughter Margaret resided with her uncle Thomas in W Nottingham at the time of her marriage to John Coppock."

This info does not quite match the info I've found on him so far. According to my research, Aaron lived in Easton Twp, Chester Co., PA at the time of his marriage to Miriam. He was not advanced in age, but in his 30's to 40's. In 1713, he, his wife, his brother-in-law, Joel Baily and his wife all sold land together. Aaron and family then moved to Nottingham Twp. on the border of Maryland. He was an Overseer, Elder and a Quaker Minister for 42 years in the East Nottingham Monthly Meeting in Maryland/Pennsylvania.

His will, dated Dec. 1726, can be found in Book A, page 205, West Chester, Pennsylvania (C-2246) It is curious that at the 1731 marriage of his son, John, he is listed as the father from East Nottingham Twp. Chester Co., Province of Pennsylvania, deceased. It does not mention his wife though she is a witness in the relatives column on the Quaker wedding document. He is listed in "A Collection of Memorials Concerning Divers Deceased Ministers and Others of the People called Quakers in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Parts Adjacent, from Nearly the First Settlement Thereof in the Year 1787, no author given, printed by Joseph Crukshank, Market Street, Philadelphia, 1787, pages 64-5".

The following translation is provided by Gary Hawley."AARON COPPOCK This Friend was born in Cheshire, Great Britain, Tenth mo. 25th, 1662. He was convinced of the Truth when quite young, and removed to Pennsylvania soon after. He is supposed to have been a son of Bartholomew Coppock, who in 1682 settled with his family near Chester. Bartholomew was a man of good standing in civil and religious Society, being often used in religious appointments, and representing, on numerous occasions, the county of Chester in the Assembly of Pennsylvania. About the year 1714, Aaron Coppock removed to reside at Nottingham, still in the county of Chester, with his family. Being a friend of sound judgment, and exemplary in his walking, he was, soon after his removal, chosen an elder, in which station he did not long continue, his heavenly Father having called him to the work of the ministry. During the short period that was allotted him to labour in this service, he was "concerned to exhort Friends to a life of self-denial, watchfulness and prayer." This his friends say "he did in great sincerity, zeal and innocence." He was diligent in the attendance of meetings, and, we doubt not, was often admitted to participate therein of that blessed communion which the humble worshippers of Christ Jesus do at seasons witness with him.On the 1st day of the Tenth month, 1725, he was taken ill, and suffered greatly. During the early part of his sickness, poverty of spirit was his portion, and a consequent depression of mind. This dispensation, which was no doubt in infinite wisdom administered, soon passed away, leaving a blessed prospect of eternal happiness before him, with a sure hope that he should, through adorable mercy, partake thereof. In this assurance, knowing in whom he had believed, he departed this life, after a sickness of nine days. He was sixty three, and been engaged in the ministry of the gospel about seven." His death date in this source is listed as 10th mo, 10 day, 1725, at age 63. Memorials were often written after the fact, and included errors. This date is likely at least one year early according to when his will was written. (C-2059) His will is as follows: "I Aaron Coppock of Notingham being Sick and weak of body but of a Sound and well Disposing mind and Memory do Make this as my Last will and testament revoking all other wills have heretofore been Made of done by me----- First my will is (that) my body be decently buried and (that) all my Just debts & funerall Charges be defrayed as Soon as Pofsible after my decease Secondly I give and bequath Unto my Son John Coppock ye plantation whereupon I Now Live when he comes of age but my will is (that) my wife Shall have liberty to live thereupon during her Natural life & to have ye Use of (that) house & buildings (that) half of the orchard & ye half of the other Improvements upon ye plantation to be at her own difpose while Shee lives & if my wife & Son John Sees Meet to part then my Son John to have Liberty to build Upon Some other part of ye Land where he Shall think Convenient & to have ye other hlf of ye Imrovement to his own proper Ufe when Equaly divided & after his mothers decease the whole to be for ye proper Use & behoofe of his & his heirs for Every whole tract containing one hundred Acres or therabouts Item I give Unto my daughter Lydia Coppock Tenn pound Item I give Unto my daughter Miriam Coppock Tenn pound (ye said) payments to be paid Unto them Two year after my decease but if they should be Married before ye time perfixed then ye Legacy to be paid them at ye day of Marriage ------ Item I give Unto my daughter Sarah Frayzer five Shillings Item I give Unto my dauther Martha Robinson five Shillings Item I give Unto My dauther Mary Sinclear five Shillings Item I give unto my Son In Law Ralph Thomson ye Money (that) is due to me Upon bill it being fourty Shillings ------ Item I give Unto my Son In law John White five Shillings.

Aaron Coppock prov: ye 17:10 (illegible) (C-1425c&d, 2150)

According to "Quaker Biographical Sketches" he took ill on the first day of the 10th month in 1725 and died 9 days later. Noting that his will was written in 1726, I'd say this source was simply incorrect about the year his death took place. If he was truly 63 years of age at his death, this would make his birth in 1663 instead. It should be remembered that this eulogy was written years after his death, and like many eulogies of this type, they often have data and detail errors based upon memories of persons that aren't necessarily his families'. His christening in 1666 means he's much more likely to have been born in 1666 also and that his age, birth date and death date were all estimates. (C-2260)

A prayer book had been passed down in the family to Anna Godwin that is now lost. It was inscribed in Aron's handwriting "We are the Clan MacDonell of Keppoch and our clan cry is God and St. Andrew" This clan MacDonnell was of Keppock in ancient times, and what is now the region called Glenngarry. The Coppock's that come from this clan were specifically from Lochaber in this region according to their homepage at http://www.clan-donald-usa.org/septs.htm. (Joyce Haskell-E) 
COPPOCK, Aaron (I12020)
 
298 Aaron was a Quaker minister. All of his children were born in Tennessee from 1798 to 1811. He was received into the New Hope MM, Greene Co., TN on Dec 31, 1796 from the Bush River MM in SC where he had grown up. On Jan. 3, 1818 they had and were received into the Newberry Monthly Meething in Blount Co., Tennesse.

In Aaron's will written in Ohio, he named wife, Margaret, d. Elizabeth and other two daughters, son Aaron in Tenn. and grandson Aaron, sons Elijah, Abraham, and Josiah. His executors were Samuel Coate Jr. and son Josiah Coppock. His witnesses were Nicholas Tucker, Richard Thompson and William Coppock. (C-1017, 1546, 2247e) 
COPPOCK, Aaron F. (I13995)
 
299 Abel was in Gallia Co., OH in the 1820 census, Tippecanoe Co., IN in the 1830 census, Clinton Co., IN in the 1840 (CL-434) and 1850 census (CL-435), Fountain Co., Indiana in the 1860 census. He had lived in Ohio by 1817 because his soc was born there between 1817 and 1818. He lives in all the right places to be the son of Joseph and Elcy Tharp of Boone Co., IN and his first two children are named after his mother, Elsey, and brother or grandfather, William Tharp. (CL-425) He is living adjacent to possible father Joseph, brother William and son or nephew, Isaac in the 1830 Tippacanoe Co., IN census and he is still living next to his likely father in the 1850 Clinton Co., IN census. (CL-436)

He appears to have been married three times, although the second marriage could be to an unknown son Abel. He is married to a Margaret in the 1860 Fountain Co., IN census. He is listed as Abel Thorp in his first marriage. (CL-425)

There was an Abel Tharp and John McCay who bought a storeroom built by John Schultz in 1853 and coverted it into a saloon in Pulaski Co. After that it was converted into Medarysville's first school house by 1857-58! This could easily be our Abel Tharp. (CL-437) 
THARP, Abel (I14448)
 
300 Abiather emigrated from Wales to Wrightsboro, Georgia. He lived in Pennsylvania. By 1810, he is listed in the Miami Co., Ohio tax lists. In 1820, he lived in Union Twp., Miami Co, Ohio and in Pike, Clark Co., Ohio by 1840 according to ceecords. It's possible that his parents were Griffith Davis and Elizabeth Coates of Wales and Pennsylvania. DAVIS, Abiathar * (I7724)
