Classification: Query
Surnames: Jopson
My name is Mike Jopson & I was born 1968, Devonport, Tasmania. One of 5 children to Edward (Ted) James Jopson & Winsome Muriel Boultbee (1924-1985.)My Dad was an only child to Thomas George Jopson, born 29 Nov 1871, Westbury, Tas & died 3 Aug 1954, New Norfolk. His wife was Bertha Lucy Byard (1886-1977) & they were married 30 Jan 1924, Kentish, Tas.

Thomas George Jopson was one of 6 children born to Edward Beardsworth Jopson & Mary Ann Jubb. Edward was born 18 Feb 1832, Lane End, Stoke Upon Trent, Staffordshire, England & died 3 Dec 1876, Latrobe, Tas. Mary Ann Jubb (1844-1929.) Edward Beardsworth Jopson, along with his younger sister, Cicely, emigrated from England to Australia in 1852/3.

They were 2 of 16 children born to William Jopson, born 1789, Nether Wasdale, Cumberland, England & died 11 Aug 1850, Hanley, Stoke Upon Trent, Staffordshire, England. His wife was Ann Beardsworth (1797-1878.) William was an Excise Officer & the son of William Jopson , born 1749, Crosthwaite, Cumberland, England & Dinah Birkett. They had 2 other children: Sarah, born 1782 & John, born 9 Mar 1785 & died 29 Dec 1843, Gosforth, Cumberland, England.

That's as far back as I've gone so far & I'm yet to find any other Jopson relatives on this ancestry path, so maybe there's a link way back in Cumberland somewhere?

Cheers,

Mike.
