John Cooper buried 2 Sep 1780 Holy Trinity
« on: Friday 03 January 14 20:53 GMT (UK) »
Hi Folks

Please could someone let me know it there is a Monumental Inscription for John Cooper said to have been buried at Holy Trinity Church in Cambridge on 2 Sep 1780 and what is on this MI.

I am interested to find out if he is the same Lieutenant John Cooper (Royal Artillery) who died at Tiptree Heath Camp in Essex on 1 Sep 1780.

My John Cooper was the first husband of my 4th great grandmother Jane Bramham.

Many thanks

Richard  :)

Hi Selina

Thanks for your reply which clarifies that its not my John Cooper who was buried in Cambridge on 2 Sep 1780 as he was a younger man and his wife was called Jane.

Best wishes
