Just thought I would post this, as trees on Ancestry insist Lilian did not die until 1972 which is clearly clearly wrong!
(Also confirms Kathleen must have been born 1915 as her GRO ref says)

Wonderful.  👍🏼
Is there a way to find burial sites for Lilian Cooper born 1878-oct 15, 1915 in Syston?
and H. F. Cooper born 1883 - Dec 14,  1956 in Loughborough?

I've looked on the CDs for Welford Rd,and for Gilroes 1902 - 1950 (these contain more than the websites) but the Coopers are in neither. This doesn't surprise me as I thought these cemeteries served the city area. Where would folk from the Loughborough area be buried?
Bradbury (Sedgeley, Bilston, Warrington)
Cooper (Sedgeley, Bilston)
Kilner/Kilmer (Leic, Notts)
Greenfield (Liverpool)
Holyland (Anywhere and everywhere, also Holiland Holliland Hollyland)
Pryce/Price (Welshpool, Liverpool)
Rawson (Leicester)
Upton (Desford, Leics)
Partrick (Vera and George, Leicester)

Harley was of “ the Hope & Anchor Inn” Wanlip Road, Syston” at his death.
Lilian also of Syston at death.
Syston is closer to Leicester than Loughborough isn’t it?

Well, there is apparently a cemetery at Syston but findagrave hasn't found these Coopers there.

There's a Syston and district cemetery at Queniborough as well it seems, but I don't know this bit of Leicestershire well.

Harley Frederick Cooper 1908 - Nov 25, 1991 had married Agnus Fould’s in June of 1931.  How would I find their children’s names?

As I said in reply #16

Have you got the other children’s marriages yet?
I can post possibilities if not.   (Was trying to leave some of the fun of the chase for you!)

I don’t have the children’s marriages yet. I’m still trying to find the right site.

I tried the site you gave me to locate children from HarleyFrederick Cooper and Agnes Fould’.  The site asked for the date range.  Uncertain what date range they mean.  Then they asked for death age and DOB.  Do I enter both 83 and his birth year 1908?
