  Notes	According to the England & Wales, Christening Index, 1530-1980 at ancestry.com William was baptised on 25 October 1835 along with some of his siblings. 1851 census: aged 20, a man servant at Hall farm, Wortham. Cousin Edgar in the same house. 1861 census: in Louse Lane, Wortham (all MINTER, born Wortham), William (head, 29, farm labourer), Susan (wife, 26), Mary Ann (daughter, 9, scholar), Maria (daughter, 6, scholar), William (son, 5, scholar), Edward (son, 2) and Charlotte (daughter, 3 months). Both William and his wife Susan died in the 1860s. 1871 census: in Marsh, Wortham (all born Wortham), Samuel RODWELL (head, 56, ag labourer), Mary RODWELL (wife, 58, labourers wife), William MINTER (grandson, 15, labourer), Edward MINTER (grandson, 12, labourer) and Charlotte MINTER (granddaughter, 10, scholar). It's a mystery why the grandfather of the three Minter children should have had the surname RODWELL since their mother was Susan COPPING. However, the 1841 and 1851 censuses include Susan, aged 7 and 16 respectively, as the daughter of Samuel and Mary RODWELL, living in Wortham. So how/why did Susan RODWELL become Susan COPPING?
