William COUPER (completed)

[gumball]

Born 1828 South Shields, Co. Durham son of Robert & Ann Couper, died 1869, occupation: Broker/Dealer in Bonded Stores.

Who did he marry and did he have a family?


See below reply:
As he was still living with his family in the 1861 Census and single I would say he was still single when he died in 1869.

Thank you for all the details you have supplied but I have most of that on record.  Just looking for William's wife and children.

"I think this might be John's wife...."

Ann Couper is the wife of Alfred Cannute Swinfen Couper.
John married Ellen Humble in 1859.

Thanks,
