Im searching for the parents of Caroline Cox 1835 - 1902. born Tirley. Gloucs.sometimes listed as Bisley (error) She married Austin Henry Reeves 18.38 - 1910. They lived in many places but started off in Launton oxon. and they went on to have twelve sons (all known). I cant carry on with the tree because I cant find her parents. There are several trees following the wrong Caroline cox which I have discarded. Has anyone got her in thier tree please?

Is this her, possibly with her mother?

Her marriage cert would name her father, if known.

Is this the marriage? He is listed as Henry only, no other first name. Still in Glos. at this point.

A copy of the marriage certificate would name his Father and father's occupation

All of the trees on Ancestry have her married to Henry Reeves, no Austin. However they do have a son Austin Henry.

Not finding a baptism for Caroline, but these are the 2 younger Cox's from the 1841 census.

Josiah Cox
England Births and Christenings
Name: Josiah Cox
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 04 Jun 1837
Christening Place: TIRLEY,GLOUCESTER,ENGLAND
Father's Name: William Cox
Mother's Name: Esther
-----------------------------------------------------
Sarah Anne Cox
England Births and Christenings
Name: Sarah Anne Cox
Gender: Female
Christening Date: 01 Apr 1836
Christening Place: TIRLEY,GLOUCESTER,ENGLAND
Father's Name: William Cox
Mother's Name: Esther
--------------------------------------------------------

As relationships aren't shown on the 1841 census, it can't be proved, only assumed, that the 3 Cox youngsters are siblings and all children of Esther, although Josiah and Sarah have Esther as mother on the baptisms.

??? as there is also an Eliza "Janes" on the 1841 census

Caroline Joynes
England Births and Christenings
Name: Caroline Joynes
Gender: Female
Christening Date: 01 Apr 1836

EDIT - baptised same day as Sarah Anne Cox!

I wonder.......

Could this be Caroline baptised, for whatever reason, in mothers maiden name??????


EDIT. Could be same has greyghost has found in 1841 census?



Name:Caroline Jaynes
Baptism Date:
1 Apr 1836
Parish:Tirley, Gloucestershire, England
Parish as it Appears:Tyrley
Mother:Esther Jaynes

Shown as 'Baseborn' (yuk)

Surname could well be James

Andy

Eliza's baptism with mother as Esther Jaynes. AS there is no Father mentioned then I would think that Esther is a Jaynes. Perhaps a William Cox admitted parentage of Caroline as she has that surname on the 1841 census??

Eliza Jaynes
England Births and Christenings
Name: Eliza Jaynes
Gender: Female

Hester/Esther shown as a widow in 1851. Unfortunately as the 1841 wouldn't record that, it's not certain whether she was widowed by 1841 or her husband just wasn't at home on the day.

tbh most of the trees concerning Csroline are wrong. I am absolutely ertain she married AUSTIN Henry Reeves. I have now found her parents. her father was William Cox jr . her mother Elizabeth Burr was his widow. who remarried in Ireland. Having said that there is a lot of info here that is very helpful. thank you so much everyone.

AUSTIN was her SON

Her marriage was to HENRY..............as posted on 31 May
