Your post suggests an earlier thread...............

And, presumably, you intended to say he was born c1849?

Would anyone please try and give me a bit of assistance with George Cooper.

A very common name, but people on here gave me wonderful leads with his daughter Sarah Ann.

So, George Cooper born c. 1949. Now here is the rub.

1881 Campbell Road, Islington. He states his birth in Jersey, Channel Islands.

1891, 1901, 1911 variously, Pleasant Passage and Slaney Place, Islington, he states Holloway, Islington.

Married to a Mary Ann, if anyone can find a marriage certificate I would appreciate it.

Children. George 1868, Sarah Ann 1873, Emma 1879, Annie 1880, Jessie Emily 1886.

Any information to enable me to go back a further generation would be greatly appreciated.

I may not be back until later on tonight, so thanking you in advance.
