~ HOOPER CONNECTIONS ~
Mission Statement:
My intention is to provide a website that will be a
"clearing house" for Hooper Genealogy Researchers. A place to
start your research, a place to make your home base, a place to link to
other Hooper genealogy and history research sites and pages. I am
not intending to replace anyones work, but rather be a resource or
connection to others sites and maybe fill gaps where there is something
lacking. I am hoping these pages will become useful tools in
helping many branches of the Hooper Family make connections. The
first major focus will be to house the Hooper DNA Project with Wade
Glascock, Project Manager. Have fun and please don't hesitate to
get in touch with me with your ideas, suggestions, corrections,
contributions and links. ~ Clay Hooper
Copyright Statement: ©
Copyright is a form of protection provided by the
laws of
the U.S. to the authors of "original works of authorship" including
literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, architectural and certain
intellectual works. Material in the "Public Domain" is
intellectual property that doesn't come under copyright law. The
first law on copyright was enacted in 1790 and followed up in 1976
incorporating the rules of International Copyright Law, extending
protection for 50 years after an authors death. In 1998,
President Clinton extended that protection further to 70 years after
the death of author or creator, called the "Sonny Bono Extension Act".
If something was written
before the last 70 - 100 years, it is probably no longer protected
by copyright law. However, if you're uncertain, please feel free
to ask. We may not know either, but will make every effort
to find out.
