Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Brothers Surname?
« on: Friday 06 March 15 03:54 GMT (UK)  »
Hi dobfarm and shanreagh
and Thank you for your time

Anns husband was William Cooper of West Bromwich my 4x great grandparents Their daughter Sarah Cooper is my 3x great grandmother
That Sarahs parents were William and Ann Cooper I am certain, and that this is definatley the Will of Sarahs mother.

I have found a marriage for William Cooper and Ann Hand in Cannock Stafford 31st December 1759 their children then born in Cannock and later West Bromwich do fit with Sarahs siblings.
I just find it a bit strange that they had 11 children but in my research i haven't come across any other mention of the surname Hand with any of the coopers, no mention of them in wills or later in census so really i was just wandering if maybe someone else would read it differently.

Quote from: Liz Aitken on Wednesday 04 March 15 01:03 GMT (UK)
Hi Anne

Many thanks for your welcome and help. I have Alexander's and Elizabeth's marriage and death certificates. According to these certificates, Alexander was born in 1835 to James and Anne (nee Scott) and Elizabeth in 1838 to William and Marion (nee Chalmers) Harvie.

I have had no luck in finding the birth records of either Alexander or Elizabeth nor the marriage records of their parents. I would be grateful for any assistance.

Thanks so much.

Liz
