Edwin Cox b Birmingham lookup
« on: Tuesday 04 July 06 13:43 BST (UK) »
Hi i did my tree but not sure if i have Edwin  birth date correct.
My g gran was EVA COX born 2 Aug 1875 , the place of Registration Wolverly Worcestor ( i have the small birth certificate ).Her father was EDWIN COX and Mother MARGARET PUGH .
On eva's Marriage certificate she was wed 1899 in December EDWIN COX is named as occupation WIREDRAWER the address is 21 steel street ulverston cumbria.
when i look at 1881 census i get a few EDWIN COX'S married to margarets with different dates .Can anyone do a lookup to find EVA'S fathers correct date and place of birth.I have it as Birmingham but not so sure.

Looking back on the 1841 census theres an Edwin Cox aged 4 with parents Joseph (40) and Caroline (35) + siblings (their trade seems to be glasscutters/gilders). Could it be this family?
