I have a Mary Emma Schofield who came to the states in 1898 with her husband James Mitchell and her family by her previous marriage to John Coupe. In 1886 she was living at 11 Charlotte St, Little Horton from the birth certificate of James Coupe (Mitchell) . James Coupe (Mitchell) graduated from the Thornton Lane Boarding School, Bradford in March 1898. There has been no family recognition of John Coupe and James Mitchell was always considered the father of the family. I have found an obituary of her first child Emmanuel Coupe (d 1884) - Other children ( from Little Horton are William, (b1882) Thomas Anthony (b1890) and Florence (b1897) - I do not know the father of the last two children. Mary Emma was the daughter of Emmanuel Schofield (b1836 East Bierly) and Nancy Hall (b 1836 Pudsey) and married April 11, 1858 in Calverly I'm trying to find information of the marriage of Mary Emma Schofield and John Coupe or James Mitchell as well as tracing the lines backward. Is there anyone who recognizes any part of this story or can EASILY check marriage certificates certificates, I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance Tom MItchell [email protected]
