Hi Deb
James Fox is my G/Grandfather his youngest daughter Martha Elizabeth born 1873 was my Grandmother, your G/G/Grandmother Flora was her eldest sister. James was born and raised in Stratton Dorset and was married three times in all and had five children with the first two wife's. His first wife was Leonora Sophia Fooks from Tyneham Dorset. The children were Flora born Tincleton Dorset 1865, John born Tincleton Dorset 1867, Leonora born Escrick Yorkshire 1867 Died 1868, Eglah born Escrick Yorkshire 1868. Unfortunatley Leonora his wife and Leonora there daughter died the same year 1868 and are buried in the church at Escrick Yorkshire. From his second marraige to Hannah Smith born Escrick Yorkshire 1837 my Grandmother Martha Elizabeth was born. At some time in the mid 1870's the family moved to Dunnichen Forfar in Scotland where Hannah Died and James later remarried Alice Houghton. James himself died on 13 march 1884 and is buried at the church in Dunnichen. Theres a little bit of information to carry on with I don't how much you know, I've been away from my family tree for a short time I will sort through things and get back to you. Get back to me and let me know where about in NZ you are because you have got other relatives over there.
