Please note that William Cooper is an exceedingly common english name. Please do not initiate merges of Leicestershire Coopers with unrelated Coopers from other counties or other countries, without looking at the sources and backgrounds! I am a Leicestershire based profile manager and I am doing a big study of the mining and quarrying areas of NW Leicestershire. If you suspect there is a duplicate Cooper profile, please run it by me and after I have looked at all the available sources, I will initiate a merge. Many thanks for your patience and understanding in this matter.
