Notes:

 

 

Job and Altha Cope had eight children, and their five sons all worked at Treeton Colliery with their father until Horace became a professional footballer with Notts County and Fred left to become a turf accountant, running his business from the old station hut in Treeton until the late 1960s. Horace joined Notts County in 1920 and later went on to run Treeton WMC before moving on to become a licensee in Nottingham, where he died in the mid 1970s. (Taken from an article and photographs published in the Rotherham Advertiser, Thursday December 24th, 1998 and sent in by descendants of Altha and Job - Claire and Jean Salt of Burncross, Sheffield.)

Nellie made the wedding and bridesmaids dresses for Margaret Smith.
