Sorry just found in another post of yours information concerning the bible so all good, and that you were the one stating Richard Heath may have originally been Richard Blood!  :D

Now I know why bible so special!

Hi Pam,

Your post has made my day! You would not believe it but I was showing my Dad (Patrick Flynn) old photos of his mother when she was just a baby, and he too mentioned she was nicknamed Bubbles. For you to then repeat it a few days later is so uncanny gives me goosebumps!

I love that my grandmother visited Lil and Pauline. Who is Lil btw? My grandmother also had the nickname Gogie (don't know if that is the right spelling!)

I would very much love to receive a USB too! I will send you a private message with my address. I have only really started researching on ancestry.com but would love to share what I have with you too!

Could you please send through your family tree as well? I could not see on the board but would very much like to see.

Sorry could you please let me know the significance of the Bible in England too with Cecil Cox relatives?

This is all so fascinating!

I am hoping to meet with my aunt and uncle to know more as well in regards to the family tree and I will let you know what I find out. Mary Gladys overall had four children - Rosemary, Helen, Michael and Patrick (my Dad).

I did read a post as well, with someone stating that they think Richard Heath (Maria Heath's father) may have had the surname Blood originally? Interesting if could find out more and if that was true!

Hello,

So excited to read this post!

Richard Heath is my 4 x great grandfather.

His daughter Maria Heath (who married Edgar Wickham) is my 3 x great grandmother.

Maria Heath had one daughter Julia Wickham who is my 2 x great grandmother.

Julia Wickham was married to Henry Ramsay Cox and they had 6 children. One being Julie Adelaide Elizabeth Ramsay Cox who is my great grandmother. One of her siblings was Henry Sydney Ramsay Cox.

She lived in Blackheath, NSW Australia and had 3 children Mary Gladys, Dorothy and Rupert. Mary Gladys was my grandmother.

I also heard a 'family myth' about the Heaths being connected to Colonel Blood and receiving pension money as a result? If you know any more would be very interested to know. The furthest I can go back is to Richard Heath

Hello,

So excited to read this post and I believe we are related!

Richard Heath is my 4 x great grandfather.

His daughter Maria Heath (who married Edgar Wickham) is my 3 x great grandmother. I also saw in a marriage document that Maria Heath's marriage was solemnized in the presence of Francis Wilson Heath. I would be interested to know how they are related as I presumed they were siblings. Richard Heath was deceased at the time of Maria Heath's marriage.

Maria Heath had one daughter Julia Wickham who is my 2 x great grandmother.

Julia Wickham had 6 children, one being Julie Adelaide Elizabeth Ramsay Cox who is my great grandmother.

She lived in Blackheath, NSW Australia and had 3 children Mary Gladys, Dorothy and Rupert. Mary Gladys was my grandmother.

I also heard a 'family myth' about the Heaths being connected to Colonel Blood and receiving pension money as a result? If you know any more would be very interested to know. The furthest I can go back is to Richard Heath.

Hello,

I was very excited to read your post and I believe we are related!

Julia Wickham was my great great grandmother (referred to as Go Go). I was looking over old family photos and saw a reference to her son I believe was Sydney Ramsay Cox!

Her daughter Julie Adelaide Elizabeth Ramsay Cox is my great grandmother (referred to as Mambo). I believe she was a very good horsewoman as well. She married Henry George Chapman who was a professor.

She had 3 children - Mary Gladys, Dorothy and Rupert. Mary Gladys is my grandmother.

I too have heard of the myth of Colonel Blood and would be very interested to read what connection there is, or anything else about Cox and Wickham.

I have been looking over old family photos (very lucky to have) and have seen photos relating to relatives in Kent, England together with photos taken in Australia where Julie Adelaide Elizabeth Ramsay Cox lived in Blackheath, NSW Australia.
