Francis COPESTICK christening

[JDGen]

Hi Alex and Jan,

I was coming to the same conclusion as Peter this morning (but had to dash off to work!).  I found a likely Ann PEDLEY nee COPESTICK in 1851 HO107 2167/489 Page 8 living at Bayley St, Congleton:

Thomas PEDLEY, Head, Mar, 49, Silk Mill Man born Yorkshire Sheffield
Ann PEDLEY, Wife, Mar, 48 born Clifton Derbyshire
Harriet PEDLEY, U, 22, Silk Mill Cleaner born Cheshire Congleton
Joseph PEDLEY, U, 18, Silk Mill Piecer born Cheshire Congleton
Sarah PEDLEY, U, 16, Silk Engine Piecer born Cheshire Congleton
John PEDLEY, U, 9, Scholar born Cheshire Congleton
George PEDLEY, U, 5, Scholar born Cheshire Congleton

Ann could have been born in Clifton & Compton - see link here:

This is near to the Staffordshire border.  It's also near to Snelston and there is a marriage there that might fit (from IGI):
John COPESTAKE m Elizabeth FOSTER 30 Nov 1803 Snelston (M058951)

Thanks so much to you both Jean and Peter 
Guess that is why Francis's baptism was not found in St Mary, Astbury !
We have seen the 1851 census with John with daughter Hannah Ball and realised we would not know from that where John was born.
We have not seen the censuses saying William was born in Derbyshire.
Anne born Derbyshire, seems to point to Frances being born there also .....if they are siblings........which we still have not been able to prove.
Thanks again,
Alex and Jan

Just shout if you need anything else.  William died before 1871, this is probably him from www.cheshirebmd.org.uk:

1862 William COPESTICK, 52, Congleton CON/20/92
