There were four children born to that marriage, in the 1950s. Those details could be sent to you privately and very likely those people could be located today. They were all boys, so it would not even be necessary to track down their marriages to find their present names.

Sigh.

Why two threads about essentially the same thing?

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.asp?wci=thread&tk=1201577

It doesn't help you, Derek, that the people who see this thread don't have any of the information in the other. And they don't.

And it doesn't help you to have new people go "finding" information that has already been found and posted there, as I just did with the Kathleen Stringer birth. Because the new people doing it aren't well pleased.


In the other thread you spelled his name Coppings ...

Births Jun 1917
Stringer Kathleen Stringer Brackley 3b 9

It's conceivable that the same Ms. Stringer had a child 3 years later when estranged from her husband or widowed, and registered the child (Kathleen) under her own surname. But only the two birth certificates will tell you what the full name of the mother in each case was.


Have you searched at FreeBMD for a marriage between Copping and Stringer to get an idea of who the mother of the 1914 child was??


... I don't see one for Copping or Coppins. It could be that the parents of that child weren't married but he was registered under the father's surname. Again, only the certificates will give that information.


This is the only Coppin*-Stringer marriage:

Marriages Sep 1898
Copping Harry Bertie Forehoe 4b 367
Stringer Edith Hannah Forehoe 4b 367
(in Norfolk)

Intrigued by the info about Reginald W Copping b1914 in Brackley and fact his mothers maiden name was Stringer. I would love to know more about her and whether she was mother to Kathleen Stringer 1917.
