1901 Census for Joseph Cooper

Post by davidblackshoes »

My very first post -other than my Intro- here.
I have so many questions about my Black Country ancestorss but I need to start somewhere so I'll start with one of the 'lost' children on my tree (I seem to be drawn to the children who died so young; some of mine just disappear and I just feel the need to put them to rest in my mind with a year of death and hopefully, even a burial site).

I'll start with Joseph Cooper.

Would someone be able to look at the 1901 Census and see if Joseph Cooper Son of Clara Cooper (& Joseph Cooper, who may be dead by 1901) is still living?
Joseph L Cooper 3 months old at 1891 census living with his mother father Pound Lane Warley WORC
sisters:
Father Joseph 32 yrs
Clara 33 yrs Long Lane
Elsie M(ary) 4 yrs
Edith M(ay) 2 yrs
and his grandmother Susannah Hodgetts 62 yrs Widow visiting Long Lane

By 1911 census, Clara is a widow with 4 children/3 Living
I know the three living are daughters (Doris Marion was b. 1893) so Joseph must have died between either 1891 and 1911 or -if he is still living at 1901 census- 1901 and 1911.

Clara (Mary) Cooper nee Hodgetts b. 1857 was one of my great grandfather Harry Hodgetts' (b. Halesowen 5 MAR 1863) sisters, and I have photos and correspondence from the Cooper daughters to my great grandmother and great aunts and grandmother in NJ USA early 20 century. (Harry immigrated to New Jersey 1885; his children were born here 1890, 1893, and 1896 [this one being my grandmother]. Wife Amplias nee Price b. Warle immigrated 1888 to NJ also, and they married here DEC 1889.)

If I can exclude Joseph in the household in 1901, then at least I can narrow down his time of death to within a decade.

Thank you in advance.

Thank you so much.
Now I know he died between 1891 and 1901.
I hope at some point to find a burial place but at least I can put another one of my 'children' to rest.
So appreciate your help.

You are awesome!
I'll send the Cooper girls' photos to Mallosa - for the Cooper family album. Maybe someone else is related and would like to know what they looked like.

TY for Joseph L's death; I think you're right, it does look like this is the right boy. B. MAR 1881 d. JUN 1881
I think (pl correct me if wrong) the 1881 census was taken APR of 1881 (correct?) and he was listed as 3 mos or 3/12. That's consistent, isn't it? Or would they have been very accurate and have listed him as 1 mos or 1/12?
