    3. I'm interested in the following COOPERs - anyone know anything related to them. Or any chance of an 1861 Census lookup for: John COOPER age ~28 Born North Deighton, York, England Ann COOPER Born North Deighton? York, England - suspect relative of John Most likely in Ripon or North Deighton in 1861. Ann married William SEYMOUR (in Ripon) in 1869 and gave birth to their first son, Joseph, 6 months later in Edinburgh (Joseph was rasied by his grandfather in West Keal, Lincs). They then returned to Ripon were Rose and Harriet were born. In 1837 William repeated the trick with his second wife Mary Elizabeth Robinson (second marriage for her as well) producing a second sonm Sydnet Herbert. Mary Elizabeth was also born in North Deighton (no idea of her original maiden name - possibly another Cooper??) William's younger sister married a John Cooper also from North Deighton - which is presumably now William met Ann. 1881 Census returns for Harriet and Willaim are as follows: Address: 99 Crofton Road Place: Camberwell, Surrey, England Ref: FHL Film 1341157 PRO Ref RG11 Piece 0675 Folio 16 Page 25 William Seymour Head M 41 M West Keal, Lincs Horse Dealer Mary E Seymour Wife M 38 F North Deighton, Yorks John T Robinson Stepson U 22 M Willoughby**, York Warehouseman Rose M Seymour Dau U 9 F Corpt Hewick, York Scholar Harriet L Seymour Dau U 8 F Corpt Hewick, York Scholar Sydney H Seymour Son U 3 M Camberwell Scholar John W Sherrington Boarder U 20 M York Clerck Secy Admirality Dept John J Cooper Boarder U 19 M Stokesley, York Clerk War Dept **since I don't know of a Willoughby in Yorks I'm assuming this is Wetherby (FreeBDM have a John T Robinson in Wetherby at right time).
