Hi,
It is possible that Annie's birth was not registered as registration did no9t become compulsory until some time in the 1870's.
I can't find her on any of the Censues but I have found a Thomas Cooper, Hawker, in Devon in 1851. He is a visitor at the house of a lodging house keeper. He is 27yrs old and gives his place of birth as Devizes, W£iltshire. The ref is
HO107/1895/F175/p11
I don't know if he is your man but he's all I could find.

THANK YOUX
If Annie married in Bedwelty 1876 this could well be her in 1871. This would fit in with her father on the 1851 census coming from Devizes.
