Joseph Cox b 1804
« on: Friday 22 April 05 08:18 UTC (UK) »
My G G Grandfather Joseph Cox was born at Cashel, County Tipperary, Ireland in 1804. The Cox's were Protestant and Joseph’s father William Cox was a Barrister. Tipperary was the storm centre of emigration to 19th century Australia. Standing on the Rock of Cashel you can look over the warm, grassy plain of the Golden Vale of Ireland and the parishes that sent hundreds of young men and women to Australia's shore.
Joseph’s first wife Ann had been married to a cousin of Joseph, Oliver Cox who had died. Prior to his death Oliver had asked Joseph to care for his wife and children should he not survive. Joseph did as Oliver had requested and married Ann on 28 May 1827 at the Church of Ireland, Parish of Stradbally in the Clanwilliam Barony, County Limerick.
Joseph Cox and his family departed Ireland from Cork Harbour by sea on 05 August 1836 to travel to Port Jackson, New South Wales. The ship they travelled on was the “Lady McNaughton”. Eight children accompanied Joseph and his first wife Ann. Joseph and Ann had three daughters Eliza, Isabella, Catherine and one son William,
Would love to contact anybody who can help me to find more information on Joseph's family before he left Ireland.
Thanks Dennis Cox in OZ

I am descended from Eliza Cox and was very interested to have the information relating to Joseph and Oliver, the place names and dates of marriage. I understood they left Cork Harbour on 5/11 1836 arriving  in May 1837. As you will know, Ann and the two youngest children died at sea on route, apparently there was an outbreak of measles and typhus on board and the ship was quarantined on arrival. I would be very interested in sharing any information you have of your ancestors after arrival here and which line you are descended from.

Wow it's been over 2 years since I posted that Info and you are the first to answer. Eliza married Martin Ryan, and I don't know alot about their descendants [maybe you can help] but I will help with whatever I can. (*)
