Thanks for the information Trishe. George and Mary (Pelley) Soper of Carbonear had a son, James, born May 8, 1840. James is my g-grandfather I believe. James and Mary Jane (Thistle) Soper had a son, Hayward, born August 24, 1882 in St. John's. Hayward (aka Robert Hayward) Soper is my grandfather. He died in Weston, Massachusetts, near Boston, in 1958 when I was 2 years old.
I have seen the name Spracklin in my research. Do you know who Samuel Henry Spracklin Soper's son, James, married? That would help me check and verify my facts. I am also interested in more information about George and Mary (Pelley) Soper, and who their parents were.
