John started the family wheel-wright business. John's ancestry can be deduced from the will of his brother, William Coppen, yeoman of Lenham, dated 1840. William's will makes bequests to his eight brothers and sisters: Sister Susanna Coppen Brother Edward Coppen Sister Caroline Coppen of the parish of Stepney Brother John Coppen of East Farleigh, wheelwright Sister Elizabeth Coppen of St George, Southwark, spinster Sister Sarah Coppen of Stepney, spinster Brother George Coppen of Stepney Five children of my sister Ann Clark, widow These are the names of the children of Jeffrey Coppen and Mary, of Linton - and given the John in the will is described as a wheelwright, and of East Farleigh, this is a good quality match. George Coppen of Stepney's will provides further evidence in support: Will written 1842 Sister Sarah Coppen Sister Caroline Coppen Sister Elizabeth Coppen Sister Susan Coppen Brother John Coppen of East Farleigh, wheelwright Clark children of his deceased sister Ann Clark Codicil written 1847 Brother Edward Coppen Four sisters - Sarah, Caroline, Elizabeth, Susan And then Sarah Coppen's will, proved 1854 provides conclusive proof by making the following bequests: Three sisters - Elizabeth, Susan and Caroline Nephew Jonathan Clark, son of sister Ann William Coppen, of East Farleigh, Kent, son of my brother John Coppen This is also corroborated by John's gravestone at Lenham.
