"By the way, I think in 1854, that James married an Elizabeth STONE  (daughter of Charles). Not sure if that Stone family is related."

I don't know of them but I will look into it - thanks.

Looks like John 1824 died as there was a later John b 1828.
I think that the child born in 1828 was actually James and there is no burial for a John Copp between 1824 and 1828 in Halberton.

"To look further, callyj06 would need to post details about the census referred to."

From the 1851 Census for Willand

John Stone  40    Willand
Susan Stone 41
William Stone 11
Susanna Stone 9
Lidia Stone  5
Mark Stone  3
Emanuel Marsden   Lodger
Thomas Hitchcock   Lodger
JOHN COPP   VISITOR   23    Halberton

John Stone is the brother in law of my 2 x Gt. Grandfather, the John Jordan (Copp) person I'm searching for.

It's very confusing isn't it?  Especially when there are Copps in the family!  I think for some reason, John Jordan has taken on the family name of his Mother in law, as here maiden name was Copp and her father, I think was John Copp.  There was also a John Copp born in Halberton in 1824, staying with a family member in the 1851 census.  I think it's going to take me a while to sort it out.

You have the right John. I don't think you can ever be sure of dates back then - records have John born 1812, 1810 and on his death certificate he was allegedly born in 1808.  So guess it could be any time.  Thanks for these thoughts, I will try looking at the John Jordan born to Elizabeth and see where it takes me.

Not sure John was really born in Halberton either!

Yes, that's them.  I'm very attached to this branch - really want to find out about John Jordan or Copp.

Thanks Geoff. My 2 x GG was a Cooper by profession,  so could be that although I'm fairly sure his M-i-L's maiden name was Copp so perhaps they took her name for some reason.  But why???? Very puzzling.  I shall have to concentrate on the Jordan title to see where that takes me. Thanks again.
