	It looks as though you have to look in NSW for the marriage details for Thomas and there is obviously some clearing up to do on his birthdate of 1818 vs 1820 but all the information will now have to be looked for in Australia sylvia

	There is a note on a One World Tree that Rosetta Cooper married John Taylor in 1839 in NSW which means the family emigrated together ........ and which explains why I can't find them on the 1841 Census :)) information on this tree for her siblings shows:- Rosetta Cooper F 3 Mar 1822 in London, England Thomas Lockwood Cooper M 20 Jan 1820 in London, England Alice Cooper F 14 Aug 1825 in London, England William Cooper M 1826 Elizabeth Cooper F Feb 1827 in Klerkenwell, U Henry Cooper M Aug 1828 Edward Cooper M 29 Dec 1829 in Queensborough U, Leicestershire, England Harriette Cooper F Aug 1831 in Syston U, Leicestershire, England Joseph Cooper M Jul 1833 in Syston, Leicestershire, England Caroline Sarah Cooper F 3 May 1838 in On Voyage, Australia Cornelius Cooper M 1850 in N S W Reg, Vol sylvia

Member Since: May 2005 Posts: 215 Send Message	I am trying to find Thomas Lockwood Cooper's birth details and marriage details; he was born about 1830. I don't know where but he and his wife, Agnes Dixon (c1830) (I don't have her birth details either) had 13 children all born in Maitland, NSW, Australia. If he was not born in Australia then he was born in the UK. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Lyne
