Thank you, lily coopers side might be a bit more tricky to track back as i know they were a gipsy family, so there might not be a lot of records, |

IF the 1908 Cooper / Wilton marriage posted earlier is the correct one, then this would be the family in 1911. |

You need the 1908 marriage certificate to show name/occupation of William Henry's Father and his birth cert. to give mmn |

Thanks again everyone, now its time to read through everything and try and piece it all together in family tree form, as im new to this it could take me a while, but one thing i will say, its very interesting. |

Really great help everyone, done well today piecing together everything and it all makes sense but I cant get any further than Stephen Martin - 1831 married to Charlotte Peckham - 1831, I know Stephen`s father was Edward and think he was married to Elizabeth from the Lyndhurst area of Hampshire but have hit a brick wall, if anyone can help that would be very helpful but if we dont find anything then ive got to be happy with what I got, |

You say you can’t get any further - where are you looking? |

You should be able to find them on 1841 census with parents |

Possibly Elizabeth's death, though age doesn't quite fit that given in 1841 census: |

1841 census says Elizabeth was NOT born in Hampshire, although all the children were. |

One vaguely possible marriage on FamilySearch - but no idea if it's your couple or not: |

Thanks everyone great info, I now have the DOB for Edward and hopefully have the maiden name for Elizabeth which is great as i was a bit stuck, i was going to go to the church in Lyndhurst to see if i could get anymore info as its only 6 miles from my house, |
