Trying to get back further - Francis Oppy 1778-1849
« on: Friday 28 March 14 15:06 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,

Trying to research further back for family Oppy/Opie.

Any guidance on finding parents to Francis Oppy 1778-1849 who married Martha Pascoe, they were married Wendron in 1807. 
Their children I have found so far are named Priscilla/Francis/James/John/Nicholas/Eleanor & Peggy.  (some of the children just recently found they emigrated to Australia.

Any help be much appreciated.
Cheers
Sue    :) :) :)

Thank you miriamkinga, very quick reply, much appreciated.

Will note these down and see which fits, didn't think to look for "frank" instead of Francis, thanks for this.

Will search google for the link to freereg, cheers
