knowlegable brummie
Could someone please let me know how I can check what happened to the above couple. They seemed to have disappeared after 1881. Did he die and Ellen(Helena) remarry. Did they have children? He was 52 and Ellen was 32 in 1881. Thank you

an't see Ellen on the following census. She could have remarried,but there are at least 9 marriages of an Ellen Cooper in the following 10 years in Warwickshire alone!
 
Re: Robert and Ellen Cooper 3 lower Priory Birmingham

Have only just seen your request. To add a little information , in the local directories Robert is listed as a beer retailer in 1880 , but in 1881-4 Mrs Eleanor Cooper is listed as beer retailer at that address.. By 1888 it is someone else there.
