My great grandfather was James Lewis Hooper. Lived in Queen Street, Lydney at time of 1881 census. My grandfather Lewis Hooper was born in Bream 1892, one of 9 children. Looking for information on any member of the family.

I suspect this isn,t "them" in 1871 subject to recorcing and transcription errors; however they are the hoopers in Llanhilleth in 1871 ?

some food for thought

1871 six bells Monmouth

Celina Hooper 10 months Llanhilleth, Monmouth, Wales Daughter Llanhilleth Monmouthshire
James Hooper 42 Eymock, Gloucestershire, England Head Llanhilleth Monmouthshire
Martha Hooper 38 Goytre, Monmouth, Wales Wife Llanhilleth Monmouthshire
Mary Hooper 8 Llanhilleth, Monmouth, Wales Daughter Llanhilleth Monmouthshire
Seba Hooper 10 Llanhilleth, Monmouth, Wales Daughter Llanhilleth Monmouthshire
Younger Hooper 4 Llanhilleth, Monmouth, Wales Son Llanhilleth Monmouthshire

1881 Lydney
James Hooper abt 1859 Llanhilleth, Monmouth, Wales Head Lydney
Mable Hooper abt 1880 Lydney, Gloucestershire, England Daughter Lydney
Mary Ann Hooper abt 1862 Bristol Wife Lydney
Sophine Hooper abt 1873 Llanhilleth, Monmouth, Wales Sister Lydney

Now this looks more promising - esp. "lewis"

1871 Porth Gwyn , Goytre
James Hooper 13 Monmouth, Wales Grandchild Goytre Monmouthshire
Joseph Lewis 66 Monmouth, Wales Head Goytre Monmouthshire
Mary Lewis 60 Breconshire, Wales Wife Goytre Monmouthshire

Something to get my teeth into.
First names certainly run in the family
