Hi Liz,

Hope that you are still on Genes, as I see that this is an old posting!
Just a long shot for me, but I am seeking my grandfather's parents, and siblings.
Grandfather was Arthur John Cooper, and he named a daughter Lavinia after his sister. Grandfather born 1886, your Levenia marrying George Browes in 1894 possibly could be the sibling to my Arthur? Don't know where my grandfather was born, he said Sydney, Australia, but have not found proof. Suspect that he was born in England, as he said his father Charles William Cooper came from Yorkshire, but haven't proven this one either.
Anyway, my grandfather appeared in Australia by 1909 when he married for the first time. He died here in 1949.

Hope that this finds you and perhaps we have some sort of connection.
Cheerio from Sandra
