I am searching more detail about - George Henry Cooper - born c.1869 - Heather - Leicestershire.

He was my Grandfather - my Mother Lilian Bale was his Daughter.

George Henry Cooper married Sarah Anne Cowley - born Quinton, Gloucestershire.

Please can anyone help me to put my missing links into place.

Thank You So much.
