hello sharonboon. am new to this but can inform you that John Coppock, brother to Thomas pretender bishop of carlisle, is in my family tree.  Apparently John born 1726 was a drummer boy in the manchester regiment, in which Thomas was the Rev. Chaplain.  John was pardoned, reccomended for mercy by jury in carlisle.  John married Mary Towneley. He would be my 6th grandfather.  Thomas and John had 2 younger sisters, Elizabeth and Hannah, baptised in Manchester cathedral.  Their parents were married in Manchester cathedral.
