CommentsCox published by Kathy Viney - 7 days ago. | | Hi there - new member here!My GGgrandmother was Mary Sayer Cox, born in Yatton in 1834. She emigrated to Australia and married my GGgrandfather Henry Goulstone of Long Ashton there. They eventually moved to New Zealand and founded the Goulstone family here.Mary's father was James Fitchew Cox and his first wife, Mary Ann White. Mary died not long after giving birth to their second child, who also died young. When James remarried and moved to Barbados, Mary was left in the UK lodging. (How I would love to know if she knew her future husband before leaving for Australia!)James Fitchew Cox's father, Stephen Cox, was a tanner. His business was called Messrs. Cox & Co or Stillhouse Lane. I bet he was a popular guy in town, creating all that pollution and awful smells!I hope this helps link my ancestors with other Coxes from the area. I would love to hear from you! | |
