General Notes: Husband - James Cooper

---

He was born on the family farm in Forward Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, and in his youth helped in its clearing. At an early age he learned the trade of a car­penter, and erected many of the early houses and barns in his vicinity. He built the business block that was occupied by the store of Smathers & Cooper at Evans City, it being all hand work from the rough lumber.

He and his wife lived on the old Cooper home place in Forward Town­ship, two miles north of Evans City.
