Hi,

Could you give us a birth year and place please?

Also her husband's name and any children would be helpful.

Just for other members - Sophia in 1851 census is a Lace Maker aged 22 and is down as HUNT - Daughter - and yet William Copestakes is down as Son in Law - I presume this is a mistranscription

William Hunt   Son   M   37   England
Ann Hunt   Wife   F   63   England
Sophia Hunt   Daughter   F   22   England
William Copstakes   Son In Law   M   26   England
Simeon Hunt   Grandson   M   1   England

I wonder if Sophia was one of those ladies that insisted she kept her birth name and did not use her married name ???...strange that Sophia AND Simeon are down as HUNT - why not Copestakes ??
I am confused
oakes,liverpool..neston..backford..poulton cum spittal(bebington)middlewich,cheshire......   sacht,helgoland  .......merrick,herefordshire adams,shropshire...tipping..ellis..  jones,garston,liverpool..hartley.dunham massey..barker. salford
