Just wondering if anyone can help with information regarding the Copeland family of Nottingham. Mary Ann M. Copeland was born in 1920, I have her parents listed below, that is all I have. Would like to find out of there were other children (siblings), and also any info re: her parents.
Mary did marry - (not sure where) to Ernest Lewis Johnson around 1937/38. He was from Derbyshire - so not sure if they married there, or in Nottingham.
Mary Ann Moisey Copeland
b. September 1920
F. William M. Copeland
M. Marion Castledine
all help is appreciated, J.

Hi
Mary A M Copeland married Ernest L Johnson
Sept Q 1939, Basford Reg district,
ref 7b 631
Where is your information from that her mother's maiden name was Castledine?

Hi
The information was from ancestry website - however, it looks like a mistake, as her mother's maiden may have started with a 'R or a P' (that was the talk of family). On the death cert, maiden name is unknown, J,

Hi J
There is a Mary A.M Copeland registered DecQ 1920 Shardlow Reg District. Mothers maiden name is given as Perry.
There is a Charles Copeland married Gladys Perry in 1918 Sept Q in Lambeth.
I think you need to get a copy of Mary's marriage certificate to confirm her fathers name.

Hi Carol
Will be contacting the older members of the family to see if they have a copy of the marriage cert, if not will order a copy
If they are her parents, you mentioned 'Lambeth', is this still in Nottingham area or elsewhere?
After 1948 - Ernest and Mary (Copeland) Johnson migrated to Australia with their 4 children.

Haven't been able to find a marriage between a Copeland and a Perry!!!!!in England around those dates.

There are also 3 other Copeland children registered with mother's maiden name given as Perry
Sheilagh M Copeland Mar Q 1928 Wolverhampton
Norman C Copeland Jun Q 1930 Wolverhampton
Kathleen O Copeland Sept Q 1934 Cannock
Charles occupation was given as Soldier on the marriage certificate, so maybe the family moved around the country with his job.

Its also worth noting that Shardlow reg district covers parts of Nottinghamshire and parts of Derbyshire - as does Basford registration district
