Miriam Coppock (Short)
Birthdate: May 10, 1664
Birthplace: Ford Parish, Sussex, England
Death: December 09, 1746 (82)
Acton, Chester County, Pennsylvania
Likely the same Aaron Coppock baptized 6 Jan 1666 in Mobberly, Cheshire.
From "The History of the Society of Friends in America, Volume 2" by James Bowden (1850):
Aaron Coppock was born in the year 1662, and united with Friends but a young man, and soon after he removed to Pennsylvania. For some years he was an elder in Nottingham Monthly Meeting, but during the latter period of his life occupied the station of minister, in which he manifested a deep concern that his friends might live a life of self-denial, watchfulness and prayer. He died in 1725, at the age of sixty-seven, in a sure hope of an entrance into everlasting life.
"Memoirs Concerning Many Persons Eminent for Piety and Virtue Among the People Called Quakers in America From the first Settlement to the Year 1770", Part 1, written in 1787, compiled by James & John Pemberton indicates he was buried "in friends burying ground at East Nottingham the 4th day following (his death). Aged 63 years and a minister about seven years."
