Hello, I am looking for information on the COPE family name. ALFRED COPE abt 1836 was born in Middlesex according to all the census. This mistifies me because all his other members of his family came from around Nottingham - Kirkby. His parents were THOMAS COPE abt 1807 Derby and ANN STIRLAND born Kirkby. They had 7 children EMMA 1827 Kirkby, EDWIN 1829 Kirkby, ELIZABETH 1831 Kirkby then came ALFRED 1836 Middlesex, HENRY 1839 Mansfield ANDREW 1839 Hyson Green and finally JANE 1844 New Basford. They all came from a lacemakers back ground. Were did they go between children for one to be born down south? Any help much appreciated. Sue
