Morning all, Cousins Bob and Doug have already given you a flavour of what is to come from the wills. Roderick COOPER in Aus in mentioning that will a couple fo days ago has effectively handed over all the missing jigsaw pieces in the world. I have taken my time in writing as there is so much new and QUALITY infop that it is hard to take it all in. As well as mentioning Cold Change the wills alos mention OxLeaze farm which in already knwon to some listers and the is mention of RODWAY and STINCHCOMBE as well as a mention of a tenant Robert TUCK who is knwon to have married Harriet COOPER THOMPSON. As I now have it the parents of John (the original will writer), Joseph, Thomas, Ann, Hannah are Thomas and Martha. Martha may well turn out to be Martha ISAAC....and the marriage as happening at Copley and Wadrington. I have today made contact with a descendnat of Thomas the Master Cooper COOPER of Castle COMBE, WIlts living in Southampton aged about 85. Re: The IGI which many listers knwo I both love and hate. I am confident that I and others have looked for Joseph COOPER chrisening about 1756 beforer and not been given it. Now it gives it to me but not others......How much else is it hiding from us ? Horton is the parish that I rarely get IGI events from in searches.....yet we know of events there....I am confident that there are a lot more events there of interest to listers....
