1.   Researchers have not found the father of George S. Hooper.
   D.N.A. testing of his descendent, Ron L.Hooper of Texas reveals George was a descendent of Col. George Hooper of Buckingham County. More to the point...he was probably a son of John, William, Benjamin or possibly James, all sons of Col. George and Elizabeth Hooper.
