My name is Ruth Jopling and I am
engaged in a "One Name Study" of the Jopling/Jobling name. My
own line runs out in 1809 when my great great grandfather was born. I have
been trying for twenty years to ascertain for sure the family to which he
belonged. He was a Whitesmith and lived most of his life in
Newcastle. He was married to Sarah Bullock and they had two children, a
son William Henry and a daughter Mary. William Henry Jopling started a
teacher training and then went on to become an accountant. He married
Isabella Atkinson and they had three sons, the youngest, Frederic William
Jopling was my grandfather. Frederic married his cousin, Olivia Jane
Atkinson and in turn they had three sons, the youngest of whom was Arthur
Frederic, my father. I have two sisters and a brother, but though he is
married, my brother has no children and our line will run out as far as the
Jopling name goes. The name is carried on by offspring of my cousins.
