don't know , I  have William cooper 1738 "of" mancetter according to the marriage, although cannot find him born there I am trying to eliminate most in the area who could possibly be his parents. I have ended up now with Thomas  and mary, but  I need the marriage so I could hopefully find the children.

How do you know they were both born in Rearsby if you don't know Mary's maiden name  :-\

Going back to William Cooper 'of Mancetter' who did he marry and where/when.

it was on one of the sites of family trees but that was all there was no marriage details or maiden name but they had mary as b 1710 d 1791 and Thomas b 1705 d 1785, William cooper wed alice jeffcoat  mancetter  31st oct 1765 but as I said it only states that William was "of" mancetter.

I don't envy you, some of those trees you are trying to follow are awful. William born c1840 marrying and dying in 1865 and producing three or four children before 1776.  One of them has him dying before he married  - that one has his birth as rearsby ::)

Sadly the marriage is no help regarding William other than him being otp when he married.  Sorry I am no help.
