Cooper Family from East Lound, Lincolnshire

[MaryAnnDean]

Canadian newbie here, and have just found this site.
My interest is in a family, last name Cooper from East Lound, Lincolnshire.
Emanuel Cooper and Eliza Atkin were married in Epworth, Lincs, in 1844, and had nine children, one of whom, Martha (who married John Hatton) was my Great Grandmother. 
   In the summer of 1860 Eliza and five of her children died, one of the survivors was a newborn son, Atkin.  Sadly however in January 1869 Atkin died and was buried in Epworth, Lincolnshire.  I would like to know what killed Eliza and her children, especially Atkin, and wonder if this information would be on their death certificates. 
Thank you.

Welcome to Rootschat. The cause of death should be on the certificates. As Eliza and 5 of her children all died around the same time, I would think it was some sort of epidemic that killed them.

Hi MaryAnnDean 

I take it that you have all the census details,

I must admit when I looked at the 1861 census,
I realised He had all ready remarried to a very young lady

Hi Eilleen,
    I don't know how to access the census details, but have been finding some information on the 'Latter Day Saints' website (family search.org).  I did know that Emanuel Cooper had remarried and I think that he had a further five children, and died when the youngest was about three years old.
Again, thank you

If you don't have access to subscription sites you can use Freecen for basic census details. You can see the family on the 1861 - try searching for Atkin Cooper as that is an unusual name and you know his date of birth.

So looking at Burials in Haxey ( nearest Church) I find in 1859

The burials of Ann, Robert and Charlotte Ellen.Looking at previous pages and later pages there are a lot of children buried so as earlier said an epidemic of some kind, you need a death certificate, sadly I was hoping the Vicar might have written something in the register but he did not.
