    1901 Census

    Because 1901 Census indicates him as a brewer and hes second name is not common in UK at all, I am pretty sure he was part of the Ind's family, who have Ind, Coope & Co Brewers, what was founded in Romford, Essex, England. In 1799 Edward Ind acquired the Star Brewery, that was founded by George Cardon in 1709 at Romford. In 1845 Octavius Edward Coope and George Coope joined Edward Ind and the company was known as Ind Coope. They opened a brewery in Burton-on-Trent in 1856.

    Ind Coope merged with Samuel Allsopp & Sons in 1934, then with Ansells and Tetley Walker in 1961 to form Allied Breweries.
