Hi
I am looking for information on Edwin Roper born abt 1862 Loughbrough, wife Maria born abt 1868 Sheffield, son Wilfred Henry born 1900.
I can not find the family in 1911 I know son Wilfred went out to Australia in 1923. If any one can find them in 1911 or any other information I would really appreciate it.
Kind regards sue

Sorry, 1911 look ups are not allowed for copyright reasons.
Have you got them on 1901? Or earlier? Their marriage? William's birth? Or are you not wanting to trace them back?

Hi slewis. This might be a long shot, do you know of any Roper's moving to Ireland / Northern Ireland. My wife's family were neighbours to a Henry Roper in Belfast he worked with horses as a coachman and covering weddings and funerals. If you think there might be some connection I can do a look up for you Belfast beau.

Hi Lestisherivr. Afraid I'd need more info than that, these Roper's weren't family just neighbours. Its just that they are the only Roper's I had ever heard of, not a common name here in Northern Ireland. Now that I've put this down on paper so to speak there will probably be lots coming out of the undergrowth. Belfast beau.
