    Default Cepy Crocks ???

    The 1871 census for William Coulthort (Coulthard) has him being born in; Cepy Crocks, Durham. in the Civil Parish of Old Shildon.
    1 Is/was there ever a place called Cepy Crocks?
    2 Old Shildon, can that be taken simply as Shildon, Durham?

    On an Ordnance Survey map, see Coppy Crooks Fm , just west of Shildon on the A6072.

    The 1891 census explicitly enumerates Coppy Crooks and lists the farm house and colliery cottages.

    RG12/4069 f 75 et seq.
