I can't open it,

Liverpool Mercury, 4 September, 1879.

Should say, he's been reported as James William Coupe.

It's opening now,

Margie,

If you're on Ancestry, you may have already noticed the note attached to the Ford burial details,

2015, Headstone still standing,
grave, SP 470

The family must have been so angry with no blame attributed to the employer. He probably had no training or anything. These days we might moan about health and safety regulations being over the top but they are for a reason.

Margie,

I would check registration for Coupe and Cope, mothers maiden name, Singleton,

It appears they may have named another child, John William
