Thanks, something not known to me here in the UK and I'd not seen it anywhere over here!

I think I have found Fred Tipper (b1881) on ancestry uK incoming passenger lists, departing NY May 1915, engineer residence Canada giving a UK address at Willenhall where he was from.  I can't find any possible UK death

Hi again:

I had wondered if one or more of them went back to the UK. Considering his occupation (Engineer), also wondered if he signed up during WW I.

When I look at the 1911 census again I see his birth date was shown as 1881. I had seen his age as 28 so thought his birth date was 1883.

There are 2 death records on FindMyPast that might be him:

Fred Tipper  (age at death 71)
Cheadle, Staffs
1952, Jun quarter
9B, 126

Frederick Tipper  (age at death 68)
Burton upon Trent, Staffs
1951, Mar quarter
9B, 87

A long shot, but thought I'd mention it.

I found Fredericks baptism in 1883 at Willenhall.  The 1952 death is not him as it is at Uttoxeter and there is a birth in Uttoxeter which matches.  The Burton one could be worth investigating, but considering Minettas 2 sisters, mother and step father all died in B. C I would have thought they all stayed in BC

Please excuse me asking.  What is PR?
I visited the vicinity in September.  It helped a lot.  St Werburghs is a mine of information.  Took photo of an Archer gravestone that I later found to be my GGGGGG Grandparents.  I hope to visit again.

James Tipper Shoemaker lived Church Lane/Street tutbury 1841

please excuse my ignorance Helena11a.
I have tired several avenues but have not been able to verify who the parents of this James Tipper are?
Staffordshire 1841 Census Transcript
Address: Church Lane   Parish: Tutbury  Registration District: Tutbury, Staffordshire   (First property listed on Church Lane after Castle Street so it could be Church Street)
Tipper  James  55 1786  Shoe Maker   Yes   HO107/0976/~F19      my 4x great Grandfather.
Tipper  Sarah  50 1791     No   HO107/0976/~F19   nee Martin, marriage 01JAN1810 at Tutbury
Tipper  Ann  12 1829     Yes   HO107/0976/~F19

I have found loads of male Tippers in the vicinity that are of suitable age to have been his father and one, a Samuel Tipper who married a Sarah, at least shows a son James christened at Tutbury - in December 1781 - a date that does not tally with the 1841 census but isn't too far off - but I know it is very dangerous for me to presume anything. 
----
If I can make the link above then there is some chance I can link through to a George Tipper who married Elizabeth Hanson 21APR1746 and had several children baptised locally - this George is a suitable age and, at that time, there seemed far fewer Tippers appearing locally.
-
Back from that possibly a link to Ann Tipper buried 23FEB1746 at Tutbury, daughter of George????

I have looked at my CD of Tutbury information - parish registers, census, MI's, lots of misc. information which can be purchased from Tutbury museum

I found

James Tipper buried 15th August 1851 of Tutbury age 68
Sarah Tipper buried 28th February 1853 of Tutbury age 65

This ties in with

James son of Samuel and Sarah baptised 25th December 1782 Tutbury

The 1851 census shows

Castle Street James Tipper Head Mar 69 Shoe Maker Staffs Tutbury
Castle Street Sarah Tipper Wife Mar 64 Warws Yeaton
Castle Street Ann Tipper Daur U 22 Dress Maker Staffs Tutbury
Castle Street Jane England Lodger U 27 Servant at the Cotton Mill Lancs Warrington

Hope this helps
