Thanks so much guys :)

I can see the image but last time I tried to send one it would not let me, even though it was saved to my computer.

I dont know if they have done something to stop people doing this...or I'm doing something wrong

Brilliant thanks so much, yeah its either the same or very similar, that church is popular isnt it, i think we will have to find out where it is and go down.

just had another look - I think Isabella's was 39 & george's 339 Grey Mare Lane (unless one of them was written wrong)

unfortunately I can't find their baptism there

maybe, possibly they had another church when they were little, do you think their children could have been baptised there?

these are isabella and samuels children,

Thomas cooper b.1893
Mary ann Cooper b.1891
William cooper b.1896
mary Emma cooper b.1899
samuel cooper b.1904
vincent cooper b1910 (my granddad)

i can never find anything on that website, do you have any tips?
