Wine Cooper sounds very posh plus they lived at 11 Buckingham place St marylebone.
I always thought a cooper was someone who made barrels?? must have made a lot of barrels to live there.

Thanks so much for your info

Pete

England & Wales Christening Records, 1530-1906 about Robert Slark
Name: Robert Slark
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 31 Dec 1790
Christening Place: Bromley, Kent, England
Father's Name: James Slark
Mother's Name: Mary

Think the Forsey is an error, she was baptised with middle name Fossey:

London, England, Births and Baptisms, 1813-1906

Name: Rose Fossey Champion
Record Type: Baptism
Birth Date: 27 Jan 1874
Baptism Date: 8 Mar 1874
Father's Name: Samson Champion - Warehouseman
Mother's Name: Kate Rosa Champion
Parish or Poor Law Union: Battersea St Mary
Borough: Wandsworth
Register Type: Parish Registers

They lived 13 Church Road.

On the register it looks like the middle name has been written as Forsey and then the "r" amended to an "s".

could well be

The strange thing is she had a duaghter in 1874 called Rosa FORSEY Champion could that be sign sound like Fossey what do you think?

Pete

Thank you so much at least I have Fossey to get my teeth into that will open a whole new branch on my tree,
Many thanks

Last name: Slark
Recorded as Slark and Slarke, this is an English surname. It is believed to be a dialectal variant of Slack which is either a topographical name for someone who lived in a shallow valley, or a locational name from one of the many places called Slack, for example Slack, near Stainland, and near Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire, deriving from the Olde Norse "slakki" meaning "valley". It may also be a nickname for a carefree person, deriving from the Middle English "slack", Olde English pre 7th Century "slaec" meaning "careless". The surname dates back to the late 12th Century (see below). Further recordings include Thomas del Slakk (1275), Court Rolls of the Manor of Wakefield, and Thomas Slak (1359), Calendar of Letter Books of the city of London. Parish registers show Elizabeth, the daughter of Elias Slarke, who was christened on July 14th 1644 in St. Olave's Church, Southwark, London, and John Slark who married Hannah Webb on August 16th 1688 in St. James' Church, Duke's Place, London. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Gerebod le Slac which was dated 1195, in the "Pipe Rolls of Lincolnshire", during the reign of King Richard 1st, known as "The Lionheart", 1189 - 1199. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

I'm only going on the Name Rosa and Slark I have never come across before
I have never managed to go back past her mother and father? so thought they may be documented somewhere else.
