Re: William Cox b abt 1824 and family
Something odd here
I can't find a marriage for William Cox and Selina
so it might be a 2nd or 3rd marriage!
or not married
the name Selina is in the family of that Joseph Cox
but I think it might be another Joseph Cox on BCC
one that might marry 2 sisters a Sarah and an Elizabeth....
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =969831005
cos one of the kids has Beasley in the name
HENRY BEESLEY COX
Christening: 12 OCT 1857 Cradley, Worcester,
Father: WILLIAM COX
Mother: SELINA Extracted birth
Is perhaps Mary Ann from an earlier marriage for William Cox?

Re: William Cox b abt 1824 and family
And if we take that Joseph Cox who married Elizabeth Beasley
we have the name Hodgetts...name of witness on both marriages
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =244218968
the son is a Charles Hodgetts
