Hello.    I have read with interest all the posts regarding the various Mayers and Copes, having been been introduced to this site by my new found "cousin" Lesley.   I too am related to some of the Mayers and Copes mentioned in the posts.   Mary Cope dob 21.8 1841 was my great grandmother.   Her parents were William Cope dob abt 1803 and Sarah Mayer dob abt 1811.   Mary's sister Elizabeth married Abel Mayer mentioned in one of the posts by "Becky"   On 1841 census William and Sarah were living in Ranscliff (Ravenscliff) Kidsgrove next to Elizah Mayer and wife Ann, could Elizah and Sarah be related?
      I haven't  yet found any confirmed connections for William and Sarah's parents or siblings and would welcome any help.

I am new here and only signed up to Rootsweb yesterday. Had difficulty finding this particular site but got help from Lesley (Thanks)

My reason is that I have a fairly substantial tree (980) which includes the Mayers/Meares/De Meres/Mieris etc back to the early Saxons of Wulfric Spot about 870 ad). My grandfathers middle name was Mayer and he was the son of Lucy Willcocks (nee Ridgway) of the well known potters who were intermarried with the Mayers in Hanley and Stoke in the early 19th century.

I have the tree set up on MS Excel and would be pleased to forward parts of it to anyone interested.  I will be following various threads on this site to fill in my own blank spots. I am in British Columbia so a rather long way from my own roots.

Thanks UK1941

Hello UK1941.   Thanks for your Email.   My Gr. Gr. Grandmother was Sarah Mayer born around 1811 possibly Burslem, Stoke on Trent, or Kidsgrove Staffordshire, sometimes listed as Wolstanton.   She married William Cope dob about 1803.   The marriage took place on 12 October 1835 in the district of Wolstanton.   That is all I know of her and I would dearly like to find out who her parents and siblings were.   If you are able to help I shall be very grateful.
                Good wishes to you and yours.                  Jeanette

To Scottish Quine aka Jeanette,
Following up on your note earlier, regarding William Cope/Martha Mayer, whilst neither are on my tree I think the following connections are correct but can't swear to them. You may wish to follow the threads.

William Cope (dob somewhere around 1765 but can't be sure)}Married around 1792 but no
Hannah ?? (dob about 1771 according to 1841 Census)           }record found

Children    Ann -        Baptized 20 Jan 1793 Twins       All Baptisms @ St Johns Burslem
                 Mary -       Baptized 20 Jan 1793 Twins                            "
                 John  -      Baptized 19 Oct 1794                                      "
                 Elizabeth  Baptized 9 Oct 1796                                        "
                 Hannah    Baptized 14 Jan 1798                                      "
                 William     Born 24 Nov 1799 Baptized 26 Jun 1803 Twins             "  nb see below
                 Sarah       Born 24 Nov 1799 Baptized 26 Jun 1803 Twins             "
                 Maria1       Baptized 21 Feb 1802 Died about 1806             " 
                 Robert      Baptized 1804                                                    "
                 Maria 2     Baptized 26 June 1808 Twins                             "
                 Thomas    Baptized 26 June 1808 Twins                             "

 William did marry Sarah Mayer in 1835 but I think she is possibly the daughter of Obadiah Mayer born/baptized 17 Oct 1802 also at St John Burslem, but I'm not positive. There are lots of Oba(e)diahs around too. Sarah had a bunch of siblings from 1792 to 1808. Have fun !!
