From brief online research, hopefully correct - corrections and additions requested:

Harry Howard Roper was born about 1871 at Hubbardston, Massachusetts, the son of John Smith Roper and Mary Louisa (Howard) RoperMary may have died as a result of Harry's birth. 

In 1899 at Hubbardston, Harry married Mabel Frances Gleason, daughter of Freeland S. Gleason and Eliza (Brigham) Gleason of Hubbardston.  Harry and Mabel farmed and raised several children. They eventually moved to Essex County, Massachusetts, where Harry died in 1950 at Newburyport.
