Very interesting, thank you for your help.

I think you're going to have a bit of trouble tracing your Coopers. There's thousands of them up and down the country and many still in the colnbrook/Windsor area. And many share the same first names too. Same with the Smiths, unfortunately.

I'm goin to ask someone (a Cooper) about your people who you're searching for. This lady was a Cooper before she married a Summers. Her husbands brother (Alfie Summers aka Chick) married my great aunt, Margaret Brazil (Cordelia and Jimmys daughter). Sadly they have all passed away now, all except for the Cooper lady who is now in her 80's but still going strong, bless her!! I know there are Coopers among the Brazils and Sines somewhere along the line but I'm not sure here. I've had the relationships explained to me in the past but I've forgotten. I'll get back to you with anything I find out. Thanks again.

Hi Richard, my uncle told me that Ruthy Sines (my great granny's sister) married a George Parker from that same area. Broad road/lane. Walton upon Thames.

My great grannys siblings were: Mary, Priscilla, Rosie, Ruthy, Arthur, Jobie, and "Cocker"? (Not sure of Cockers real name) and I think out of the boys only Arthur ever married, but I don't know who to. There was also another brother (John) but he died either at birth or not long after.

Rosie married Henry Ripley, Mary married Mark Sines (a cousin), Cordelia, my great granny, married James Brazil, and Priscilla married Walter Honeyball.


Your Albert Sines (my great great grandfather), had brothers called, Samuel, Benjamin, John and James. Samuel Sines is buried with Albert and Dinah Sines at Walton upon Thames. As far as I know he had a son and a daughter, Samuel and Esther. Samuel Snr lived at Chertsey near St Peters Hospital with his wife and children until his wife passed away and he moved back to Molsey with his children. He passed away at the age of 58.

You have my great great granny Dinah Sines and her brother in law John Sines as witnesses at the wedding of an Aaron Smith.

Other names of interest are: Rawlins (not sure about the spelling)
Hughs, Ball, Darby, Williams, Hunt and Jones.

Hello Richard, your greengrocers, Albert and Dinah Sines, of Broad lane Walton on Thames in Surrey, are my great great grandparents. Their youngest daughter, Cordelia, was my great granny. She married a Jimmy Brazil from Walton on Thames (field common) my great granny was born on the 15th of Febuary 1908.

Cordelia and Jimmy Brazil had 7 children, only one is still alive. His name is Albert Brazil, he was a twin but his twin (billy) died at birth and is buried in Teddington cemetery, as are my great granny Cordelia and 5 of her children, one of them being my granny June.

It would be great if you could give me anymore information about Dinah and Albert Sines. I know Dinah was a Rawlings before she married and her mothers name was Esther.
 

Many thanks!!!!!!!
