Can anyone shed any light on where burials would have taken place for Queen Charlotte's Hospital Marylebone.  Baptism, St Marks, Marylebone Road. 1898.  Twins born to Rose Cox, Mary baptized on 15 September 1898 and registered by Maud Manning and Cox, Harry baptized 16 September 1898, registered by G C Campbell.  No trace of Mary subsequently and awaiting Harry's copy birth certificate.  Thank you.

I didn't realise I has so many replies - thank you!  Ada's mother was Rose Emma Vernon b1867 Bedworth, father Edward Cornelius Cox b 1860 Jerico Oxford.  I have been searching for years for their whereabouts after 1896 when Ada was born.  I've traced them on the 1891 Census in Bedworth.  My mother b1924 recalls someone calling at their house when she was small (so about 1930) with a small amount of money for Ada (they had traced her) so maybe Edward didn't die but left looking for work.  I have wondered if it was a war or occupational pension.

I am researching my grandmother Ada Cox b1896 in Drayton near Daventry. She lived No 18 School Street which no longer exists. She was the youngest of 4 children, with 2 older brothers (aged 3 and 5) and an elder sister (aged 8). Her father Edward Cornelius Cox was a miner and lived in Chilvers Coton, Nuneaton in 1893 and I would like to know what brought him to Drayton? On Ada's birth certificate he has the occupation of tunnel miner so would that be to do with the expansion of the railway system?  After the birth of Ada I can find no trace of her mother or father whatsoever as in 1901 Ada and her sister are living with their maternal grandmother in Bedworth and the 2 brothers are sadly in Foleshill workhouse.  Edward may have been working on the Catesby railway tunnel where many people died of Smallpox apparently.  Does anyone know what the burial practices were for deaths of such infectious diseases?
