Samual Joseph COX of Wycombe?
« on: Friday 20 January 06 20:31 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to get information on Samual J Cox, my wifes g Grandfather but I have made little head way. I know he married a Caroline Elizabeth and had at least 1 daughter called Carrie born 1 November in Wycombe. They were married about 1878
The 1881 census does not give a Samual Cox living in Wycombe but does show a Joseph J Cox married to a Caroline and with a child named Carrie. I assume that this is the same person but I cannot be certain . I believe also , but again I am not certain, that Samual was born in 1859 in Great Marlow. He moved to London prior to 1883
If anybody can provide any more information from censuses etc I would be very grateful

 >:( Can't find any match for Samuel J before 1881!

Hope somebody else can spot him.

Very sorry!

   Hello again Tanja,
                                  Your latest reply here makes me think along the same lines as my Cox family, from the same area too!! 
             If I didn't have a the Ewell link to Essex, then I would think we were looking for the same line.  ???   There's even a Fred  :o
             I do hope Wrinkly gets to view this info you've posted.  :-\

    ;) Ok, found this marriage on FreeBMD. site.
           
            Cox, Caroline Elizabeth.  St Geo H Sq
            Cox, Samuel Joseph.       St Geo H Sq
                                                                         Sept Q 1879. Volume 1a, page 738.
            That will get you a marriage certificate.
                                          Let us know the outcome.  :D
