FURTHER TO MY EARLIER POST WHERE I THOUGHT GEOGE FOX WAS WIDOWED BY 1861 CENSUS, THIS LOOKS LIKE AN ERROR. I HAVE JUST FOUND THIS, WHICH IS AN EVEN BETTER FIT FOR OUR GEORGE & HIS WIFE CAROLINE ??

1871 Coalway Lane End, West Dean, Monmouthshire, England
Household Role Sex Age Birthplace
Geo Fox Head M 49 Carpenter. West Dean, Gloucestershire
Caroline Fox Wife F 34 West Dean, Gloucestershire
Frances Fox Daughter F 11 West Dean, Gloucestershire
Elizabeth Fox Daughter F 9 West Dean, Gloucestershire
John Fox Son M 7 West Dean, Gloucestershire
Fanny Fox Daughter F 4 West Dean, Gloucestershire
Richard Fox Son M 2 West Dean, Gloucestershire

So clearly George's wife Caroline didn't die as young as I'd thought... perhaps the 1878 death posted earlier was indeed hers ?

1861 Littledean Lane End, West Dean, Monmouthshire, Wales
Household Role Sex Age Birthplace
George Fox Head M 56 Carpenter. Lane End, Gloucestershire
Caroline Fox Wife F 44 Tillowell, Gloucestershire
Elizabeth Fox Daughter F 18 Lane End, Gloucestershire
Tom Fox Son M 17 Blacksmith. Lane End, Gloucestershire
Richard Fox Son M 12 Lane End, Gloucestershire
Ellen Fox Daughter F 9 Lane End, Gloucestershire
George Fox Son M 3 Lane End, Gloucestershire

I have never before heard of a Lane End at Littledean, which is in EAST Dean, nr Cinderford. However I now find that there was indeed a Littledean Lane End near Broadwell, West Dean, which perfectly fits our family.
See http://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/glos/vol5/pp117-138
"Tillowell" which should read Pillowell, which is near Whitecroft, as per her Marriage Record.


SADLY OF COURSE, still no sign of George's mother Sarah, so no more clues as to her birthplace etc.
