Thanks for your help. He did have a sister Ann, and that he was living on own means in 1901 doesn't surprise me. Money came into the family. I just wish I could find where it went to!!

could anyone look up George Cooper born Pendleton, salford 1850.

I have him on the 1881 census as unmarried at the age of 30 and family tales say that he never did marry. I'd like to confirm this. Was he still living in Whit Lane?

Thanks
