Lottie Harriett was the wife to Charles Henry Cooper her maiden name was Greenfield and I "guess" Ann may have been who I used to call "Aunt Lilly"?

Hello Chris and Rose.

1: Yes GRO so I should be able to see the ref numer come up there before I order PDF have I got that correct? Because when I search For Charles Henry Cooper 1881 with either that ref numer you have given me Vol 2a pg323 or look for a cooper with Andrews for his mother I cant see it why is that please? If they havent got it it cant be logical to order or have I got this all wrong please and thanks?!

2. Ah thak you it was Number 3 Ferry Road was it Im deligted at that. She lived in a flat and had a dog and I told my dad off for leaning his foot on the dog! Sorry unprofessional. I have got her on my scraps of working papers and yes her husband Buchanan had long gone or died I think it was said he was a Canadian!

Anyway GRO?

Thank you Will x
