Travelling People / cooper marriage
« on: Monday 29 August 11 10:55 BST (UK)  »
Hi all

Need to find a marriage for Edward Cooper aka Wenton and Henrietta ??

both born circa 1802. Have them on 1881 census living on Mitcham common in a tent. Birth place for him states
Croydon and for her, Berkshire.

Have her death 1884 Croydon.

His death 1886 Croydon.

Can't find the marriage............If they did at all.  Although we always seem to get married all be it after the children have grown which seems to be traditional. So time wise they could have married between about 1825 ish up to death!!

They had a daughter Cordelia Cooper who married Aaron smith
And they had a son Samuel Smith Who Married Rachel Deakins. All lived in and around the Surrey area.

Any info on these names would be helpfull too! I do have some stuff but it's always good to just put it out there as you never know where it leads!!!!

Thanks all. ;D

Hi all.

Can anyone please tell us if Honor is a traveller/gypsy name.

They were in berkshire throughout 1800s and as we already have travelling folk in our tree we suspect these people were too!
