Hello again. I am trying to find the birth of Roy or Malcolm Cooper born 1916 maybe in Birmingham or Buckinghamshire. The reason I ask is on a marriage certificate which I know is correct he is listed as Malcolm W R Cooper but I cannot find any birth cert for him with this name. I have found a birth cert for a Roy Cooper born in Walsall 1916. I dont have any more info on him other than this. His father was Henry P Cooper and he married Gwendoline Blowfield. She is not Roy's / Malcolms mother. If anyone can help me with this I will as always be very gratefull.

Hello Pam - was Henry P Cooper married to Malcolm/Roy's mother?

Pamela

Pamela Report 18 Mar 2012 16:45

Hello
I honestly dont know if he was a widower. I have looked in the marriages for him before 1928 bur cannot find anything. He was my grandfather so I should know but sadly I dont. I think he was born in Birmingham 1881 but that might not be correct as I remember him having a very strong southern accent. Any help on this would be very wellcome.
