Hi all, elaine has been very helpful on a previous thread of mine and also jill who has lookd on her berkshire records for me.
However, I am still very stuck!
I cannot find a death for George Cox, the only one we have is in Waltham St Lawrence which is about 50 miles from where the family have lived for all their lives in Faringdon/Wantage/Challow/Wallingford, do you think this is possible? I know the only way to find out for sure is to get the death cert!
Also, we believe he was married to a lady called Eliza/Elizabeth Crook. Although we can find no marriage for them. In the 1911 it says they have been married for 20 yrs. The first two children are in the name of Crook in 1891. The youngest, Gertrude is in the local workhouse with her mum and the eldest Violet is with grandfather in 1891. Eliza would of been 24 in 1891 so I was thinking maybe she was married before marrying George, but I can't see a marriage for any Eliza Crook to anyone else that would fit!
As we don't know anything more about Eliza I can't find her death either!
Does anyone have any ideas? Sorry its so long winded but couldn't word it any other way!
Many thanks
Tessie
