He died 28/5/1948 address then was 24 atholl place, stirling.
His parents were thomas cooper dob 1896 married jean dick dob 1897 in airth 23/4/1915.
I konw he had atleast 2 sisters but can't find any record of them on anything I have looked at.
Could someone point me in the right direction please.

If his sisters were born in Scotland then you are not going to find anything online. Scotlands People only cover births between 1855-1908.
More recent births can be looked up at the Ednburgh Records Office but you will need to find someone going there & willing to do a lookup for you.
