Wow it's such a small world, as you have read the messages i have in my possession a Holy Bible that belonged to Emily inscribed on the first page is presented to Emily Dossetter reward for good conduct and regular attendance at school, dated December 19th 1889.

through which line do you descend it would be interesting to know, if you would like the book i would be very pleased to send it on to you,if you PM me with your address i will gladly post it on.

Marriage maybe.

Emily E Cox to leonard Sidery O/N/D 1936 Greenwich 1d 1769
Birth Pauline A Sidery A/M/J 1940 in lewisham 1d 1470/

Pauline A Sidery married J/A/S 1961 Middlesex South to John M Short
Births Martin M Short mum Sidery 1963 in Middlesex
Andrew Paul Short 1966 in Hounslow.

Leonard Sidery 9/3/1910 died Jan 1989 in Slough Berkshire,parents George Sidery 1870 Kent and Minnie 1869 Reigate Surrey.

Of course this may not be the correct Emily Elizabeth Cox as there were 2 or 3 born @ same time,I just thought the Greenwich connection might be there.

I can't see a marriage for second daughter Doris.
