I am trying to find out some more about my Grand Uncle Harry COPELAND and his family in the Liverpool area where they appear to have lost contact with the family. Harry either came with or followed his brother in law James PAYNE, my Grandfather, who came to Birkenhead with his family to work on the construction of the docks. While in Liverpool, Harry married Maggie O'HAGAN but I can't locate the marriage. Looking at the various records, I have come across some Margaret HAGANs born in the area and of suitable ages so I wonder if family memories were exactly correct. I know that: Harry s/o Joseph COPELAND AND Elizabeth MCCLYMOUNT was born in the March Qtr 1890 in Lambeth, London, ENG. On 5 Apr 1891, Harry Copeland was living with his mother Elizabeth McClymont and siblings James, Joseph, Elizabeth, Martha, and Mary at Gilborne Row in Chapel-en-le-Frith, DBY, ENG. On 31 Mar 1901, Harry was living with his parents and siblings James, Elizabeth, and Joseph plus various boarders, at Hisehope in Muggleswick, YKS, ENG. He married Maggie O'Hagan who was born in Birkenhead, CHS, ENG. He died at Birkenhead, CHS, ENG. Their known children John. Harry, James, Jack, Margaret, Annie and Mary were all born at Birkenhead, CHS, ENG, and many died there too TIA Jim Jim & Beverley Payne NEW ZEALAND jr_bjpayne@xtra.co.nz Our web site is located at the following URL: http://www.shampayne.org.nz
