Leonard Cooper's children
« on: Sunday 09 April 23 22:41 BST (UK) »
Hi
I have Leonard Cooper married to Harriett Humphreys in 1874 Notting Hill.
I have their children Leonard 1875, Henry 1876, Catherine Frances 1878, Seth 1879 and Ellen 1882 in Kensington. I've found these on censuses and GRO.

Then on 1911 census, Leonard is a widower, still a chair maker but with Leonard born 1888.
He also has listed these as his daughters: Caroline 1893, Jane Ethel 1898 (found her on GRO with mother's maiden name WEBB) and Sophia 1895 (found on GRO with mother's name WEBB again).

Can anyone find whether Leonard remarried after his marriage to Harriett? I can't find a marriage to a WEBB.

Thanks.

Kent as county of birth for Caroline was crossed out in 1901.
In 1911 it again says she was born in Kent.

Leonard Cooper is a widower in the 1891 census. The last child born to Leonard and wife Harriet seems to be Leonard in 1885.

Some school records in London for children of Leonard + Harriett.
Haven't got time to look at them now!
