Marilyn, I think you are right in that the Richard I found is not the right one. Gloria :-((((

I am just going to assume that the 1901 census record I found has been transcribed wrong I think. Too much of a coincidence that 3 of Marys siblings are listed in the household.

You found him! Brilliant! That's what happens when I go off to cook the tea, lol. Heather

I think I will be the busy one tonight (for a completly different reason!) Gonna have to make sense of all this and put them in my tree. Thank you both so much for keeping my sanity.

I did put up 1881 and then had doubts about it and deleted it, but now I am happy its the right one. I make that 11 children, they were pretty busy!! I think the Ricahrd Cox who died aged 48 is not the right one, our one here seems to be born about 1823 Marilyn

Its starting to look very promising! Thank you. No wonder I wouldnt find an Alfred and Richard Cox in the same family - looks like his dad died when he was very young.

could this be Richards death England & Wales, FreeBMD Death Index: 1837-1983 Record about Richard Cox Name: Richard Cox Birth Date: abt 1842 Year of Registration: 1890 Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun Age at death: 48 District: Hungerford County: Berkshire, Hampshire, Wiltshire Volume: 2c Page: 141 Gloria :-))))

Right I think this is him on 1891 living in Hoe Benham Eliza Cox age 54 widow George Cox son age 27 Ag Lab Frederick Cox son age 21 Ag Lab Alfred Cox son age 15 Ag Lab Edith Cox grandaughter Elizabeth Cox grandaughter Rose Cox granddaughter

Off the tope of my head - a caroline whiting, and the other I cant remember. Didnt ring any bells with me. Will check for sure when I get home.

Who were the witnesses on the marriage cert, Karen? Will it help if we know, lol? Heather

Thanks ladies, I am getting really annoyed with this line - I have been trying to trace him for months, and gave up. But recently found 2 relatives on here for this line of my tree, and its spurred me on to be more determined about it, and find the man that refuses to show his face!!

Heather, neither can I . Elusive isnt he?? Marilyn

Have looked for Arthur Miles on 1891 and he is with, amongst others, his sister Mary.!!!! Can we presume therefore, this is the same Mary who is down wrongly, as the daughter, and Gertrude is not the wife. Hope this makes some sort of sense. Gloria :-)))))

There's a birth for Alfred Cox in Hungerford in 1873 on freebmd Heather

Marilyn It wasn't your posting that confused me, ...it's just that I can't find Alfred! Heather

Sorry I did lose the plot!! Have deleted my postings as they were obviously not the right ones!! Sorry Marilyn

It says he was a breadmaker, Wife --Gertrude M, Gloria :-)))))
