You could buy the 1872 marriage cert...........if he knew his father, the name will be recorded, as will the name of Patience's father

Just wondering if I can ask those who are a bit more knowledgeable in tracing family if they could please help me before I combust ;-) I have been doing lots of research into my great great grandmothers side of the family tree which has led me to the gypsy 'Cooper's but now I am starting to doubt myself. Here is what I know

my great great grandmother is Gentilia (some times known as Genty) Powell nee Cooper born in Brighton abt 1874 to Samuel and Patience Cooper nee Smith marriage 1872... I think Patience was the daughter of George and Mary Smith. Its Samuel that I am really stuck on. I think that his father was Matthias Cooper and his mother Eliza nee Lee. There are so many of them though that it is all turning into a big headache :(( Helllppp I know that they are all from Surrey way.
