Biography
James Cooper
James was born in the late 1800's and lived with his mother and father, and his little sister Cassandra. The family had become friends with the Ingalls. Charles and Albert came along with the Camden family on a trip to Walnut Grove, their new home. On the way there as they were driving there, the two wagons came to a very steep hill. Charles managed to slowly make his way down with Albert and the two Cooper children, but as they soon came to the bottom and turned around, they noticed that Cassandras parents had lost control of the wagon and went flying down the hill, tumbling over and being brought to their deaths. And as quick as that, Cassandra and James Cooper, were now orphans. (Episode 721: The Lost Ones (Part 1)
After many days of mourning, the Ingalls, along with the Cooper children, returned back to Walnut Grove. As they came over to the house, the first thing Cassandra saw was Mrs Ingalls face. She quickly jumped out of the wagon and ran into Caroline's arms. She reminded Cassandra of her own mother.
As time went on, Charles decided that it was time for them to find a home for the children. As much as he wanted to keep them, he couldn't. Their house was too small, and already had too many people in it. Charles soon learned they one living relative Jed Cooper, a professional gold prospector; however, Jed Cooper was to run down, poor, and occupied with looking for gold and could not take on the children. (Episode 721: The Lost Ones (Part 1) Eventually, they managed to find parents for them, but the father only wanted a daughter to replace the one he had lost and despised James. He made both of them work and slave away. So much in fact, that they couldn't even manage to keep up with their studies in school. In addition, the oldest son of the family was a jerk trying to get rid of them. Therefore, James and Cassandra put an end to it. They decided to run away.

Cassandra ran for help and came back with Charles.
