Garrison-Cooper, Stafford Co VA
Update to my earlier message that was posted in June 2005, and shown below.
After visiting the Library of Virginia today, I discovered that 1. Robert Garrison (b abt 1808) was married to Hannah Cooper. Hannah was the daughter of Raleigh Lewis Cooper, and she had four sisters: Amanda, Elizabeth (Betsy), Sarah, and Jane.
Raleigh was the son of Richard Cooper and Sythia Mason.
Additionally, Robert's daughter Virginia (2. iii) married Seth R Cooper. Seth and Virginia had at least six (6) children: John Robert, Estelle, Cassius, William, Montague, and Attila.
Seth was the son of John C Cooper and Sythia Tolson.
If anyone can connect to my Garrisons or Coopers, please email me at [email protected].
Thanks!
