I am looking for information about my gggrandfather, Sterling Cooper, born in N.C. in 1827. He migrated to Vigo Co. Indiana sometime before 1850. He lived his life in the Vigo Co. Ind. and Coles/Clark County Illinois area. He married Amanda ? and they had several children including, Benjamin Franklin Cooper born 1873, William who lived in Edgar County, Illinois as late as 1939, and Callie Hylman who lived at Terre Haute, Ind. as late as 1939. Sterling died in 1920 in Coles County, Illinois and is buried at the Dunlap Cemetery at Clark County, Illinois. Any leads would be appreciated.
