Does anyone recognize this particular COPELAND family? Could SKS look up the following family in the 1891 British Census and please let me know the details? I am not certain where they were living in 1891 as like others of my family they seem to have moved around wherever work was available. Looking at the established dates in my data it could have been London or Essex or Co Durham or Newcastle on Tyne, Northumberland, England or ??? I am almost certain that the Joseph in the 1881 Census is my great grandfather. When I looked at the 1901 British Census I got what appears to be the same parents but a different family (see below). I know that Joseph, Elizabeth, James and Harry in the 1901 census are my granduncles and grand aunts. If the 1891 British Census shows some of the children from the 1881 census [William; Martha; Mary; Margaret] and some from the 1901 census [Joseph; Elizabeth; James; Harry(?)] then I would know that they were the same family. On the other hand if it only showed children from the 1901 census then that would be an answer too! (I sometime wonder if Joseph Snr had two wives - the first one dying because an English aunt who has been a great help never mentioned the children in the 1881 census with the exception of Margaret who was her mother and my grandmother 1881 British Census Dwelling: 5 School Str Census Place: Hillmorton, Warwick, England Source: FHL Film 1341735 PRO Ref RG11 Piece 3080 Folio 19 Page 1 Marr Age Sex Birthplace Joseph COPELAND M 31 M Wigtonsh Glen Luce, Scotland Rel: Head Occ: Blacksmith Elizabeth COPELAND M 28 F Wigtonsh, Scotland Rel: Wife William COPELAND 5 M Ayrsh Ayr, Scotland Rel: Son Occ: Scholar Martha COPELAND 3 F Ayrsh N K, Scotland Rel: Daur Mary COPELAND 1 F Kilsby, Warwick, England Rel: Daur Margaret COPELAND 5 m F Hillmorton, Warwick, England Rel: Daur 1901 England and Wales Census Dwelling: Hisehope Census Place: Muggleswick, N W Durham, England Source: PRO Ref 13/4667 Marr Age Sex Birthplace Joseph COPELAND M 52 M Scotland Rel: Head Occ: Blacksmith Elizabeth COPELAND M 49 F Scotland Rel: Wife Joseph COPELAND 18 M Yorks Rel: Son Occ: Railway E Stoker Elizabeth COPELAND 17 F Durham Rel: Daur Occ: Dressmaker own account at home James COPELAND 12 M Essex Rel: Son Occ: School Harry COPELAND 10 M London Rel: Son Occ: School Jim Jim and Bev Payne New Zealand [email protected] Jim and Bev Payne New Zealand [email protected]
