So Ann E Whorton's maiden name was Jones?
She must have married a Whorton before Harry Cooksey?

Have I got that right?

Odd though

somat is odd
the area checks out Lichfield/ Cannock
the name is good Whorton/ Jones marriage

without buying the birth certif...come on you down unders...sort it out.....

Family Tree on Ancestry - Pargeter Family Tree says:

Evangeline Jones Cooksey b. 1896 Norton Canes
Adoptive Parents: Harry Cooksey & Annie Elizabeth Whorton

Spouse Henry H Parish, marriage: Bromsgrove, 1923

Born as Evangeline Jones Whorton, but adopted by her father's sister, Ann Elizabeth Cooksey.


So Evangeline is actually the daughter of a female Jones & a male Whorton?

Annie E has two brothers on the 1861 census - John b. 1847 Sedgley, Staffs. & William b. 1855 Cradley, Worcs.

I haven't been able to find hide nor hair of this family after 1861????

Geez, you're good, FS!

OK, so Evangeline Jones Worton - later known as Evangeline J W Cooksey - is probably the daughter of either John Worton or William Worton. William is not with his parents in 1871 - possibly already married or deceased. John C is there. Can we find either John or William in 1881 or 91?

Ok so we have a Male Whorton and female Jones marriage to find is that rite?
from 1861 onwards?
and this one....
is not the right one but is the sister of Anne E Whorton
so wonder who Issac Jones is .....brother to the sister who married Male Whorton?
