According to my information, Isabella Straw (or Isabella Shaw, depending on your source) and Richard Hooper were parents of both John Jefferson and James Monroe Hooper. Information I have shows that the James Monroe Hooper who married Susan Buckner and Louise Reeves was born in 1818, the same year another brother who was also named James Monroe died. My information also shows that John Jefferson was born August 26, 1812, making him just 6 years older than his brother, James Monroe. According to my records, John Jefferson and Attazarah did have a son named James Monroe Hooper; however, he was born in 1847 and would have been a cousin to the James Monroe Hooper who married Susan Buckner/Louisa Reeves. HOWEVER... I have not seen proof of any of this information. Have you? It all came from other internet sources, and from the Hooper Genealogy - A Southern Branch book. What do you think?

I've seen other information that indicates John Jefferson Hooper was the brother of James Monroe Hooper, rather than his father.  According to my information, Isabella Straw (or Isabella Shaw, depending on your source) and Richard Hooper were parents of both John Jefferson and James Monroe Hooper.  Information I have shows that the James Monroe Hooper who married Susan Buckner and Louise Reeves was born in 1818, the same year another brother who was also named James Monroe died.  My information also shows that John Jefferson was born August 26, 1812, making him just 6 years older than his brother, James Monroe.  According to my records, John Jefferson and Attazarah did have a son named James Monroe Hooper; however, he was born in 1847 and would have been a cousin to the James Monroe Hooper who married Susan Buckner/Louisa Reeves.  HOWEVER... I have not seen proof of any of this information.  Have you?   It all came from other internet sources, and from the Hooper Genealogy - A Southern Branch book.  What do you think?

RICHARD3 HOOPER (OBEDIAH2, OBEDIAH1) was born March 25, 1782, and died June 18, 1855 in Shelby Co., TX.. He married ISABELLA SHAW December 23, 1806. She was born January 19, 1788, and died February 04, 1860 in Shelby Co., TX.. Notes for RICHARD HOOPER: >From Hooper Genealogy A Southern Branch, Vol. II, by Flora Hooper Collier Obediah Jr.'s eldest son, Richard Hooper, was a first cousin of John Word Hooper (Richard, Obediah). Born on March 29, 1783 in Georgia, he was married in Georgia on December 23, 1806 to Isabella Shaw (born January 19, 1788). Isabella was a niece of United States President John Adams. His father, Obediah, who was Justice of the Peace, performed the marriage ceremony. In February, 1836, Richard came to Shelby County, Texas, probably from Tennessee or Alabama. He was commander of a calvary company from San Augustine, Texas from July 6 to October, 1836. Richard received his headright certificate for land in Shelby County on February 1, 1838. A member of the House of Representatives of the first Texas Republic Congress from Shelby County, Richard was also a county surveyor in 1839, 1840 and 1848. In 1839-1840 he acted as County Surveyor, a draft of $622.25 was issued him in Jan 1840 for his services in this position, he having run the Shelby County lines. In August 1848, Richard Hooper was again elected County Surveyor of Shelby, his last recorded office. He was classified in the Agricultural Census, taken September 13, 1850, as a farmer and stock raiser in Shelby Co. Two months later, November 8th, he transferred to Chas. S. Mann in Travis County, a warrant for his recent service as a Surveyor. No further facts pertaining to Hooper's life have been found." It is believed that this Richard Hooper is the eldest son of Obediah Jr., Justice of Peace, who performed the marriage between he and Isabella Shaw, 23 Dec 1806, recorded in "Franklin Co. Ga., Marriage Records". In Obediah's pension application he gave their various moves from Va., to S.C., to Franklin Co. Ga., abt. 1788; removed to Bedford Co. Tenn., abt. 1811, removed to Tuscaloosa Co. Ala., abt. 1816, then to Pickens Co. Ala., abt. 1822 and remained there until he died, 31 May 1839. The record of births of Richard's children occurred in Tenn., in 1811 through 1830. In Obediah's pension application was an affidavit; his son John M. Hooper states that he moved Obediah and Sarah from Ga., to Bedford Co. Tenn., then back to Ala. Dr. and Mrs. Norman Duren of Beaumont, Tex., took a trip to Bedford Co. Tenn., in Apr. 1962, where they found a Deed to John Hooper in 1821; one to George W., George S., Benjamin, James, William and a Charles. 2 Richard and John M. were the two eldest and only sons of Obediah Jr., and his lst wife Sally Gates. There was an Obediah in the "Bedford Co. Tenn., Tax List for 1812", but his name does not appear in other searching.
