Well, for a start, looking at the 1939, we discover that he probabl;y had a sister as sharing the house, although marked as a different household is a William E Steele and his wife Louisa. William has the same job as Frank and I suspect this is his marriage:

Marriages Sep 1935 (>99%)
***Cooper Louisa Steele Liverpool N. 8b 1186 Scan available - click to view
Kinsella John McIver Liverpool N. 8b 1186 Scan available - click to view
McIver Kathleen Kinsella Liverpool N 8b 1186 Scan available - click to view
***STEELE William E Cooper Liverpool N. 8b 1186 Scan available - click to view

Louisa was born in 1911 and I suspect that she is Frank's sister?

This is a birth which matches and there is a Frank on your list with the same mothers maiden name:

COOPER, LOUISA VALENTINE Order
GRO Reference: 1911 D Quarter in ORMSKIRK Volume 08B Page 1676

COOPER, FRANK .....VALENTINE
GRO Reference: 1913 J Quarter in ORMSKIRK Volume 08B Page 1697

I will look further............

Hi Folks have been searching for this guy for over 2 years and am trying to get his birth cert, i need a bit of help please.
What i have and know : Frank Cooper born 25 April 1913 married Doris L Cole on 1st April 1944..His pa is listed as, Joseph Cooper deceased General dealer.Frank was in Army catering corp in 1944, living at 6. Heyburn Road Tuebrook Liverpool...

I have managed to get the 1939 Reg...and Frank is still living in Heyburn road as a cook in restaurant and i think it might be his mum : Mary Cooper b. 10th July 1889 Chambermaid, married.
I have no idea where he was born, but think he died round 1982 in Cannock Staffs. I cannot order cert as their are 8 Frank Coopers registered june quarter 1913...
I have tried to match up Joseph Cooper with any Mary's with surnames on that quarter but no matches.

I also tried searching electrol register in libarary for them before 1939 and after war but they didn't live there then...So stuck can anyone suggest what i could do so i can get a birth cert for Frank Please. :-( Joanie
