Sarah Cooper 1790 Lea - Parents
« on: Monday 02 November 20 21:01 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
I’m looking for the parents names for Sarah Cooper born about 1790? Lea. 

She married Thomas Smith on 14th February 1814 in Crich, with consent from parents.  Witnesses William Marsden and Hannah Lomas.

The children I know of were called Sarah Ann, Elizabeth, William and George.

I’ve had no luck in the years I’ve been looking, in tracing her birth record or parents names.  If anyone could help me I’d be so happy and really appreciate it. 

Thank you

With parental consent implies she was a minor, thus under 21, at marriage.
So I would be looking for a birth slightly later than 1790 - that would have made her 24 at marriage and not needing parental consent.

1793-1798 maybe?

DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

Hi Trish

Thank you for replying.

I’ve had a look at the baptism records, it just says Ashover but for George he was baptised Dethick Chapel, Ashover. 

Thomas died 1837 Crich.  I don’t have a death for Sarah or any census details for her. 

Sorry I’ve no idea if they left the country.  I know William Smith (Sarah’s son) definitely stayed in Derbyshire.

I see that Thomas Smith was living on Lindway Lane at the time of his death, so this might be of some help.

Sarah Smith, Widow, Farmer of Lindway Lane, daughter of William Cooper a Farmer,
married Thomas Walker, Widower, FWK of Plaistow, son of John FWK.

They married 24th July 1838, Crich.

Hi willsmum,

Thank you for replying and thank you so much for this information. 

Yes Lindway Lane is correct and Crich is a definite too.  William Cooper could be her father then  :)
Might be why I couldn’t find a death as her surname had changed
