I'm looking for Francis Cooper born about 1800.
I thought he was in Lancashire with his family but he may be in Yorkshire as he was married in Ripon and possibly born there.
On the 1841 census he is in Cheetham, Manchester aged 40 and Not born in County
I notice on Ancestry there is one born 1800 in Yorkshire, would someone kindly let me know the details.
Thanks

I can't find Francis in 1851 but Jane definitely claims that she's married. The son (Joseph) who's living with Jane in 1851 goes on to have a son himself named Francis.
Hope this helps

Sorry I wasn't around to respond earlier.
Francis must have been somewhere else on census night as Jane is given as Head, very odd if he can't be found..
I spotted a Francis Cooper in Yorkshire b 1800, is he married? and is his wife with him? if so he's not the one I'm looking for.
Thanks for the info you have posted.

Many thanks for looking, maybe not the one I'm looking. All information is helpful and you never know it might be him. I'll see if any more clues turn up.
