Daniel Hardy Silcox was born in Somerset England, son of Daniel Silcock Sr. (b abt 1779, Wells) and Mary Chivers (b abt 1789), and he was grandson of Stephen Silcocks (b abt 1745, Rode Sommerset) and Betty Hardy (b abt 1744, Witshire).
Daniel Hardy Silcox immigrated to the US, June 14, 1827.
Many in the family were either in the Cloth/Clothier or the Carpentry fields.
I believe Betty Hardy was the daughter of George Hardy and Sarah Whatly.
I believe Stephen Silcock was the son of John Silcock and grandson of Peter Silcock b bef 1672, North Bradley, Witshire) and Hester Adams (b Abt 1676, Rode Somerset).
I would appreciate any information about other family members or needed corrections to the above research.

Have just looked up the immigration and see that it was the parents Dan and Mary and all the children who arrived on the Hudson on 14 Jun 1827, although some of the children, including Daniel appear to be missing.

Correct... Daniel Hardy and two older brothers stayed in England for another year or two.
Missing, in the ship log, are Daniel Hardy Silcox (b 1813) and older brothers John (b 1807) and Joseph (1809); Daniel Hardy and John appear in the 1835 Longworth's American Almanac, New-York Register, and City Directory and the Manhattan, New York City, New York Directory: 1839 thus they probably immigrated to US after 1827.
Daniel Hardy and cousin Edward became very successful in a Charleston SC Furniture business. Several of Daniel's descendants gained wide recognition for their leadership and business abilities. We can find their names in books or journals that describe their prominence in the furniture business, in the military, as Chief of the US Forest Service, in cotton buying and exporting businesses, and in church leadership.

You seem to have a lot of information on the Silcox's of Rode
I wondered if you could place my Silcox within this family?
Charles Silcox born 1826 in Rode Somerset
son of James Silcox (no dates)
I have no other information, i know he moved to Wales before 1851
Any information would be great regards Helen

Thanks for that, any idea where i can find out more about his parents?
Hope you had a great holiday!

Do you know which Charles is correct?

Perhaps already know to you but I'll list anyway:
Try: http://www.fromeresearch.org.uk/
and census and birth/death records
-
I thought it was Charles James B1828 son of John and Ann but looking at his marriage certificate my charles names his father as James so i think i was mistaken
Thanks for the link
Will keep looking
