    Notes:

    The Bath & Cheltenham Gazette, 19th March 1890
    THE SUICIDE OF A WHEELCHAIRMAN - Mr. B. H. Watts, Deputy Coroner, held an inquest on Thursday on the body of Thomas Richard Cooper, wheelchairman, of 6 Henrietta Buildings, who drowned himself in the river at the back of his house, and whose body was recovered in about 24 hours. - Emily Cooper, widow, said her husband was 36 years of age. He came home between a quarter to nine and nine o?clock, and said that he had stayed out late in hopes of getting a job as there had been nothing doing. He went out and got some beer and provisions. When he returned he had his supper. He drank about half-a-pint. She put her eldest child to bed and deceased went up with her. He undressed and got into bed. He complained that she had not done some washing which he wanted. She told him she would go down and do it before going to bed. He was a little annoyed, but not very angry. There was no altercation. She went down to do the washing and he came down from three to five minutes afterwards. He had on his drawers, shirt, and undershirt. He asked her to come to bed, and she replied that she would when she had finished what she wanted to do. He picked up the lamp off the mantel piece and said he would throw it down if she did not come to bed. She noticed that he looked strange. She picked up the baby with the intention of going up to bed. He dashed the pipe from this mouth on the ground and said, "Good bye, I am going; goodbye." He had been to bed with the pipe. She put the baby on the sofa and rushed after him, but before she got into the yard he was in the river. She took a clothes prop, jumped down onto the bank and touched him with it. She begged him to take hold of it and come back to his little children, but he neither moved nor spoke. She called for help and her next door neighbour came instantly, but could do nothing as he had floated out of reach. She did not hear him make any noise after he had jumped into the water. Three years ago last September he threatened to commit suicide. Then he was not sober and seized a razor to cut his throat, and she snatched it out of his hand. He would give no reason why he would do it; they had had no dispute. He had served six years and five months in the army in India. She had not noticed anything strange in his manner lately. The children had been ill for some time, and deceased had been worried because work was slack. She denied having worried her husband or had any dispute with him. - The jury returned a verdict of suicide while temporarily insane.

    If the above is not his death, then this is a potential marriage:
    Name: James Cooper Gender: Male Age: 28 Birth Date: 1858 Marriage Date: 1886
    Marriage Place: Hartshill By Stoke Upon Trent, Stafford, England
    Father: Richard Cooper Spouse: Elizabeth Milward FHL Film Number: 1470997 Reference ID: 2:1DMRW38


    If above is correct, then this may be him on 1901 census, but now a widower.
    Name: James Cooper Age: 43 Estimated birth year: abt 1858 Relation to Head: Boarder Gender: Male Marriage Status: Widower
    Birth Place: Bath, Somerset, England Civil Parish: Aston Ecclesiastical parish: St Basil County/Island: Warwickshire
    Country: England
    NOTE: If James married in Stoke, that's a long way from Bath but, given, we find a James Cooper, born at Bath, in Warwickshire in 1901 and that Stoke Upon Trent and Aston are not that far removed, it is possible this is the same James Cooper, the son of Richard Cooper and Hannah Bancroft.
