Thomas LUCAS and Louisa COOPER

[robinadexter]

I am desparately seeking a marriage between Thomas LUCAS, born Llangurig (1816 - 1825) and Louisa COOPER, born Isle of Wight 1839/41. They ended up in Islington by 1860s, but who knows where they met/married? Anyone?

Hello Robina,

Have you tried searching in the area where the children were born.

It may well be that you already have this 1861 Census information but it perhaps will give others an idea of how to help you.

I see that you have posted to the Hampshire Forum which is Louisa's County of birth, so perhaps you will have some luck there - I hope so.

Do you have access to the GRO Index of Births Marriges and Deaths.
I have looked at the Free BMD's, with no result although there are a number of Alice Coopers.

Regards
AudreyM.

Thanks Audrey. Can I refer you to my reply to Geoffers on the Norfolk Forum. I really have tried just about everything! Grateful for your kindness, though.
