The best I could do for births is
COOPER James J R England Warwickshire, Shipston on Stour 1921
COOPER Margaret E England Warwickshire, Rugby 1925
COOPER William England Warwickshire, Coventry 1927
Have not been able to find William's death.

Edit:
942 Births from 1920 to 1930
Last name: Cooper (including variants)
Region: England
Mother's maiden name: Cooper

More information would be useful, if you have any.

Pam i do think this is the right family my dad was born in March 31st but i suppose they may not have registered him until June

Alemap

Alemap Report 22 Jun 2011 14:12

Anita, your dad would have been registered in April. The registers are split up into quarters.
Jan-Feb-Mar, Apr-May-Jun, etc...
Quite often Apr-May-Jun is seen as Jun on it's own.
