4. | James Amberson Cooper was born on 12 Nov 1843 in Hinds County, Mississippi (son of Jonathan Henry "J. H." Cooper and Obediance "Obediah" ???); died on 5 Jan 1927 in Pineland, Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Jacks Cemetery, Pineland, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Virgie Speights shows his middle name as Anderson, but all other researchers indicate it was actually Amberson. This is supported by the Widow's Application for a Confederate Pension application completed by Amelia Cooper, listing the full name of her husband as James Amberson Cooper. She also referenced that he had previously drawn a pension, citing file number 33200. Ancestry.com shows in their Civil War Service Records database that J. A. Cooper served in the Eleventh Texas Infantry, entering as a private and being discharged as a Corporal.

"On the 1900 census, Amelia reports that she has had 11 children, 7 of whom were alive at that time. Only the 10 children below have been identified. Apparently one child whose name is now not known died at birth or very soon thereafter. If anyone has any information about this child, please contact me at mailto: jimcooper@austin.rr.com."

8. | Jonathan Henry "J. H." Cooper was born on 22 Aug 1818 in Mississippi (son of William Gill Cooper and Dempsey Donaho); died on 17 Feb 1897 in Yellowpine Cemetery, Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Spring Hill Cemetery, Hemphill, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
FindAGrave shows that Jonathan and Obedience "moved to Pineland, Sabine County, Texas in 1854 from Mississippi. They built their first home, a log house, a short distance from Pineland, and later build a larger house north of the present town site on the east side of Highway 87. He went into the mercantile business and owned a store and a sawmill at Yellowpine, Texas. He was also a farmer and a breeder of livestock. His hobbies were fishing and hunting and he was said to have been one of the best in his community. He was elected Commissioner of the Sabine County Board of Supervisors, and as Commissioner, he ordered the County to buy in 1870 the first iron safe for the records of the County Clerk. Later the courthouse burned and all the records were destroyed."
