[Wondering if Sampson Copestake could be her brother, - Maybe Copestick - he then born Uttoxeter Dec 1843 . But there was no Mary Copestick born there 1838-1846!! So seemingly not her brother!! She must have been registered in Derby- a couple of possibilities there ~1841 BUT, then found Sampson Copestake in 1851C with a sister Mary Hannah Copestake, b.1841 - this must be the Mary Hannah I was looking for - a EUREKA moment!]

1906. Likely dies as Mary Ann Mann, stated age 63, Stoke Mar 1906
