Please would someone be able to have a look on Family search (i think this is what it is named these days)..For any info re:this info which i found on Ancestry:John Barber of stockport was married to Ann Cooper..Marriage place: Stockport.Marriage year 1825
This john Barber (above) also marries Mary ann cooper with same details as above

(you have 1841 on above, if them)


Edits (not ignoring, but must be going now!)

Family search is free,

Thank you for reference Chris and Erikah..

Looking at the info on your previous thread, all of the people on 1841 census are recorded as having been born in Lancashire, so it seems strange that the parents would - perhaps- have married in Stockport

Three of the sons in 1851 - I don't think anyone found 1851 on your other thread

Chris

I don't think those births are for this family - they just don't 'gel' somehow...........too late for William, and where are Thomas and Charles?

But, I'd be happy to be proved wrong

(we need more info. to work from, or definite facts!)

to quote Wikipedia

"Historically, most of the town was in Cheshire, but the area to the north of the Mersey was in Lancashire. Stockport in the 16th century was a small town entirely on the south bank of the Mersey,"

so your family may well have considered themselves Lancastrians

is this 1841 census more likely - living in Newton, Cheshire

Name Age
John Barber 40
Ann Barber 38
Mary Barber 14
Alice Barber 10

William Barber 3
John Barber 1

William & John mmn = Cooper

Name Age

When William married in 1882, he gave his age as 43 and his father as John, occupation Mechanic

What is the occupation of John snr in the censuses above?

I would agree that the above are probably the couple who married in Stockport, but I don't think that is the poster's family, when taking into account the info on the other thread about Charles (Marriage: 19th september 1863,st peter. Manchester
Charles Barber age 24,Mechanic, Bachelor To Elizabeth Walker age 23, spinster.
Groom's Father: John Barber ,Mechanic...) in addition to William's marriage
