I've not edited my PROFILE yet
James Cox, Blacksmith born 1835 Thetford Norfolk.
« on: Thursday 01 November 07 23:15 GMT (UK) »
James is a major brick wall!
He married Elizabeth Carson and by 1861 he was living in Kent - in 1871 in Woolage . I do not have them on any other census.

James was born in Thetford - but I have looked at the baptism records for the 3 churches and drawn a blank. His father was George - a shoemaker. I cannot find any family either on 1841 or 1851 that fit the bill.

I guess he must have been an apprentice blacksmith somewhere - perhaps he was poor and was supported by  someone other than his family during his apprentiship. Can anyone point me in the right direction. I live in Norfolk - so I can follow up local records if I know where to look!
Thank you to anyone who can help
