Hi I'm researching my mothers family history her name is Linda woolman (cooper) born markfield Leicestershire her great great grandfather was Charles cooper he married a Elizabeth geary in 1830 Thornton Leicestershire 28th day of nov her father was John geary born Stanton under bardon I have born 1806 but I think this is wrong because he married 1799 May to Alice frost Newtown linford father William frost steward for lady Jane grey at bradgate park house .so I don't think John geary would have been Christ in 1806 .
Thanks
Steve
