L.4 Hand-drawn Family Tree: Descendants of Daniel Cooper and Grace Runyon (1695–1895)
I.85 The Wyckoff Family in America (1950, 2nd ed., Wyckoff Association in America, Summit NJ; ed. Streeter 1934; comp. William Forman Wyckoff) — printed pp. 287–288 entry #56 (=52.) JACOB6 WYCKOFF × THEODOSIA COOPER family = published-source-grade verbatim Wyckoff-genealogy entry naming all 11 children with marriages + dates. MULTI-CORRECTION of L.72/L.74 tree-tier readings: (a) child #6 1808 = Fanny Cooper Wyckoff (NOT James Cooper Wickoff per L.72; resolves the L.72/L.74 conflict in favor of L.74 Fanny reading); (b) Jacob's son (L.72 #3) = Jacob HARVEY Wyckoff at published-level (= primary-source-supersedes the F.108 high-res 'Henry' zoom reading); (c) child #5 = Simon I. (NOT Simon J. or Simon P.); (d) Gertrude's 2nd marriage (Cross) date = Dec. 9, 1814 (NOT 1817 per L.74 + NOT 1812 per F.109). MAJOR CDV-LINE FINDING — E.C. SEARLE RE-IDENTIFICATION: Wyckoff book identifies child #2 Catherine Elizabeth Wyckoff (b. Apr. 1, 1799 — d. June 27, 1884) m. Oct. 6, 1827, Zetus Searle (b. Mar. 13, 1799 — d. May 12, 1880) = Catherine Elizabeth Wyckoff Searle is the strongest E.C. Searle candidate per CDV [H.2](../H-Photograph-CDV/H.2.yaml) caption. DISCONFIRMS L.72's hypothesis that 'E.C. Searle' = Eleanor Conover Wyckoff: Wyckoff book entry 130 explicitly lists Eleanor C. Wyckoff (b. Mar. 18, 1813 — d. Apr. 1, 1908) as m. Mott S. Cannon, m. (2) Dr. Stephen Childs — NO Searle marriage. New datum: Jacob Wyckoff baptized Apr. 23, 1775 in Hunterdon Co. NJ (= same era + place as Theodosia b. 1775/76 White House Hunterdon = same baptismal church candidate). STILL NOT primary-source-locked: Theodosia Cooper's parents (Wyckoff book is silent on her parentage; doesn't confirm Benjamin Cooper 1741-1794 hypothesis from L.72)
