Could be her. Rebecca's maiden name was Cox. Could this be her parents. Can you tell me anything about the two children?

Jill Report 24 Sep 2007 23:41

do you think they are Rebeccas children? or could they be one of Rebeccas brothers children staying with grand parents.

Gina Report 24 Sep 2007 23:42

I have both William and Rebecca on the 1881 census and there are no children. Still not sure about William, he was definately born in Barrowden.
