Hi Cassandra Lisa, Many thanks for the quick response, obviously wrong information given to me, still sifting through any possibilities for the 'missing' Frank Cooper. Again thank you, kind regards Maureen

maureen

you can check births marriages and deaths on www.freebmd.org.uk


it is a free site


and after about 1911. you can search on father's surname and mother's maiden name


The records start on July 1 1837 and are currently upto about 1930 ....... new additions are made frequently as volunteers are transcribing them
