This looks like Frederick (presumably George's brother) Name: Rixon, Frederick Record Type: Births Quarter: September Year: 1859 District: Henley County: BuckinghamsBerkshire Oxfordshi Volume: 3a Page: 460 Here's George: Name: RIXON, George Record Type: Births Quarter: March Year: 1862 District: Eton County: Buckinghamshire Volume: 3a Page: 361 Eton reg district includes: Sub-districts : Burnham; Eton; Iver. GRO volumes : VI (1837-51); 3a (1852-1930). Boveney, Burnham, Datchet, Denham, Dorney, Eton, Eton Wick, Farnham Royal, Fulmer, Gerrard's Cross, Hedgerley, Hedgerley Dean, Hitcham, Horton, Iver, Langley Marish, Slough, Stoke in Slough, Stoke Poges, Taplow, Upton cum Chalvey, Wexham, Wyrardisbury (Wraysbury). Wondering if the Fred birthplace on the census is meant to be Langley Marish, in which case the ref I quoted earlier is the wrong one. nell

Jean This could be sister Rose, fits in with above census info: Name: RIXON, Louisa Rose Record Type: Births Quarter: March Year: 1886 District: Pancras (1837-1901) County: London Middlesex Volume: 1b Page: 53 According to the census info theparents were both born in England. I'll see what else I can find. nell

nell, isabel is on the fbmd site as isabel emily rixon born st pancras 1887

nell, isabel had a sister rose, I think 2yrs younger than her, my uncle said yrs back that one or other of the rixons came from ireland. everyone else, thanks for the help.

Ok this is the real Head of the household. John Cox abt 1864 Birmingham Visitor St Marylebone London Frederick Nixon abt 1859 Longleynon, Buckinghamshire, England Head St Marylebone London

George Nixon abt 1862 Hedgerley, Buckinghamshire, England Head St Marylebone London Isabel E Nixon abt 1888 London, England Niece St Marylebone London Lizzie Nixon abt 1856 Mouddore, Kent, England Son-in-law St Marylebone London Louisa R Nixon abt 1886 London, England Niece St Marylebone London They are living at 60 Earl Street, Marylebone and George is a farrier. Yes the image does say that Lizzie is the son-in-law and Isobel and Louisa are nieces. There is also another Nixon at the same address. I'll trya nd get the details on.

They are definitely on as Nixon for 1901 but unfortunately I am not clever enough on pooters to know how to copy the information onto here!

Can't find this family on 1891 census. Also tried Nixon, but nothing. Do you know if George and Lizzie had any other children and when they were born? Why do you think they may have come from Ireland? nell

Have another go on Ancestry - I think that the family are on as Nixon not Rixon!

I am still trying to find my nan on the 1901 census, only found a couple with her name but not the right one, I have her registration and birth certificate, but nothing from then on. her name was isabel emily rixon bn 1887 sandwich street, st pancras. her mum was lizzie rixon nee clark, her dad was george rixon, he was a farrier. I think she was perhaps in service when the 1901 census was taken, maybe in chiswick. would like to know if both or either parents originated from ireland. I have been looking on the free bit on ancestry with no luck any help appreciated. thanks jean.
